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 Xiangji Temple
Located in the Chang’an Country about 17.5 kilometers south of Xi’an City, the Xiangji Temple was established in 706 A.D. by Huai Yun in honor of the accomplishment and the contributions of his teacher Shandao, who pioneered the Pure Land Buddhism. The name “Xiangji” symbolize Shandao was as religious as “Xiangji” Budda—the sacred ancient Indian Buhhda.
In Xiangji Temple, there are two diagnostic pagodas. The larger one is named Shandao pagodas. It is built in 680 A.D. during Tang Dynasty with a height of about 33 meters. Surrounding the temple, there are twelve Buddha amazingly carved half-naked, which are actually the curiosa. The smaller one made of brick was built to commemorate Jingye-another ardent follower of Shandao.
The temple was in fashion for a period during Tang Dynasty. Huai Yun called in Buddhists from all directions to hold ceremonious fete. Wang Wei, the renowned landscape poet of Tang Dynasty, visited the temple and composed a poem to admire the attractive of the temple. Today, more and more visitors thronging here make it a popular destination.
Open Time: 8:00 am-18:00 pm
Admission: 3 Yuan
