Daniel Li,
I am writing to you to thank you very much for our wonderful trip to Xian. The tour that you organised was fantastic. Sorry for the delay in feedback. I thank you for all your prompt and quick replies to our needs and desires for the tour that we took on Feb 10, 2008. You are very professional and provided what we had requested. I enjoyed my tour of Xian - from start to finish. It was most comforting to have my tour guide meet me at the airport. Your tour guide - Ms Mary Ma is exceptional in both her English and her knowledge of her subject. She is to be congratulated.
I have no hesitation in recommending your company to other travellers.
Thank you once again.
Kind regards
Janet Hawke

Xian Moslem Street Huimin Street
Located beside the Drum Tower, the Moslem Street is about 500 meters long from north to south. Drilling through the gate hole of Drum Tower, you enter into the Moslem Street. Just like its name, Moslem Street is the habitat of the Hui minority. The famous “food street”, the oldest and best-preserved Islamic mosques---the Great Mosque together with the town god temple exist here. It takes on the unique historical and culture value.
The street is paved with dark colored stone as well as the green tree offering the heavy shade during summer. The buildings on both sides of the street are referring to the style of both Ming and Qing Dynasty. The food or instruments offered by the Huimin are provided with full-bodied Moslem feature, which are favored by the visitors especially the foreign visitors.
There is a long story about the Moslem Street. About more than 1,000 years ago, that is to say in the Han Dynasty, it was the beginning point of the Silk Road. A lot of foreign diplomatic envoys and merchants came here, lived then married, so nowadays most of the inhabitants of Moslem Street are the descendants of those immigrants. All the Moslems here are pious and devout followers of the Islam so they form a tight community, which maintain its own culture and traditions to this day even in such a modern society.
In Xi’an, it is really well worth to view and admire the street to enjoy the traditional Muslim and the Chinese Style.
