The magic mountains

, originally uploaded by sazztastical.

I have no idea what they are really called but I think they should be called the Magic Mountains. They are everywhere here but these ones are the ones directly in front of our hotel and our view from the room. They are beautiful. They get quite hazy during the day just from the heat I guess but in the morning and at night you get the most beautiful view and you could just sit looking at them for hours.

First thing in the morning if you sit and listen you can hear all sorts of birds and animals calling from them. This whole area is very rural. Unfortunately there is a little town just about 15 minutes away that is just solely designed for tourists and is a nightmare to go into but come out this far to our hotel and there's nothing. It's beautiful and relaxing and I'd love to stay here another few days but unfortunately, as I'm writing this, I'm sat in the lobby waiting for the taxi to take us back to the airport.

Next stop Xi'An. Our flight is at 7.45pm and then we'll be somewhere different again.

I love China. What a fantastic place and what a great holiday this is turning into :)

I'm going to miss this view so much though! Oh well, I've got the photos and I've got a feeling I may well be coming back here...
