China - Pingyao (25.09.2013)

Today, I walked around the streets of the ancient city of Pingyao.
I met by chance a guy from Belarussia who is working in Krakow in Poland.
We went on the top of the wall surrounding the ancient city of Pingyao.
Normally it costs 120 yuan (about 15€), but we went there for free.
In fact, yesterday, he found the way to go through a hotel but he didn't succeed.
Today, we tried together and we succeeded.
We took a lot of photos.
Then we walked together all the afternoon and he taught me how to negociate the prices with Chinese in the streets.
It was a really good day...

China - Pingyao (24.09.2013)

I arrived in Pingyao yesterday afternoon.
It took me 1h45 to go to my youth hostel from the railway station.
I asked to the policemen to each crossroad to find my way.

I met a boy from Holland at the youth hostel.
His girlfriend was sick.
She went to the hospital.
They discovered a bacteria certainly contained in the food.

This morning I went to the railway station to buy my train ticket to go to Xi'an on Friday evening.
It took me 20 minutes to go there with a map :)
In fact, It was just right next.

Pingyao is a really nice place.
My youth hostel is located in the heart of ancient city of Pingyao.
The ancient city of Pingyao is inscribed to the UNESCO World Heritage.
