I just came back from living there for a couple months. I was in chengdu. If you love food go there! Its great. I also went to chongqing and zhangjiajie. Which I HIGHLY recommend zhangjiajie for 3-4 days. Many people say go to Bejing, It has all the popular stuff but if you dont wanna go that route, XIAN has great history, Chengdu has great food and alot to do, and then I obviously recommend going to zhangjiajie. Chongqing also has many things to do and is massive!

Mark is a great role model, always demonstrating major gratitude for food and hospitality no matter how far removed from one's upbringing. Who knew internet could be thoroughly positive and yet still engaging? This deserves to be recognized and emulated more.

There are so many amazing dishes in Xi’an that you might not have tried yet. Some must-tries include Bangbang meat, pork intestines bread soup, cold rice noodles, lamb blood and buckwheat soup, Xi’an corned beef burger, bubble doughnuts, gold wire oil tower, and clear lamb soup. For tourists, there are just two main places to explore. First, the Muslim Quarter, known for its diverse Muslim food offerings, and second, Yongxin Fang, where you can enjoy traditional Han ethnic foods.

This one in Xian is an overload of the senses. Like an Emperor's dining hall. The Veg burger reminded me of the way Falafel is made in the Middle East. But this one had Tofu instead of the chickpea patty. And the Pork belly burger. Better than a hamburger.
