We will start in Xi’an. We will visit the Terra Cotta Warriors and have some Chinese food. Then we will take a train to Lanzhou. It is not far from Xi’an. I want to walk along the Yellow River. Our last stop along the Silk Road is Dunhuang. Dunhuang is my dream city. I’m looking forward to visiting the Mogao Caves. I can’t wait to see the beautiful ancient paintings there.
