Xi'an - Beautiful madness

Advantages: Authentic and loads to do
Disadvantages: Easy to get lost

Xi'an is the capital of the Shaanxi province and one of China's major cities (being the country's capital at one point). It's an old city which hasn't developed quite as quickly as many other major cities. There is plenty to do in Xi'an and you're unlikely to find a day with nothing to do. I have given a list of some of the major attractions, but there are many more to be found; just by exploring. City Wall Xi'an is one of the few cities in China to still have a complete city wall and is the most complete surviving city wall in China. The wall is 8.5 miles long and you can walk round the wall (taking roughly 2 hours) or for far more fun you can hire a bike (or Tandem) and cycle round. The wall is full of pot holes so be careful if you cycle. Muslim Quarter The Muslim Quarter is a great little tourist trap. Located by the Drum ...

Review of General: Xi´an

index

Advantages: don't have to leave home
Disadvantages: can't try the clothes on

I ordered a coat form index extra (www.indexextra.co.uk) and although i had to wait a while it did eventually come. The problem with the site is that it is hard to navigate and very slow, as you would expect with all the images but this was really slow, i also had to place my order twice and make two phone calls to the company before my order was finally accepted. They give you the option of easy payment, with which you get 10% off your order. Although it took about a week for my coat to arrive, when the site says 2 days, i was mainly pleased with the service and i now have a nice new coat. Only do certain sizes (up to a 14) ...

Review of Index Extra - coat

ITS A RIGHT INDEX TO INDEX.

Advantages: Good if they have it.
Disadvantages: They normally dont have it.

Its My Right Index to Index. Its almost Xmas and myself and my partner are planning what presents to get for friends and family. This is me looking back by the way and I am not confused as to what month we are in. It?s the 6th April so please don?t be worrying about my sanity, well maybe just a bit. So out with the good old Index book and lets have a look at what there is in it. To be fair it is a really good catalogue and has something for everyone. So we look at the toys section and get that toy for the kids and something for my Mum and a few things for ourselves, cant very well leave ourselves out can we. The list is complete and the codes are all filled in and its just a matter of getting into the car and driving to Index. On arrival I can see its totally packed and I know I should have done my Xmas shopping earlier but ...
