We wandered around a heritage park by the Big Wild Goose Pagoda or Dayanta. (Da for big/ Yan for wild goose/ Ta for pagoda). The park is full of bronze statues including this one of woman holding a sword gracefully. There is much Buddhist and Tang dynasty history in Xi'an. We left our apartment intending to visit the biggest museum in the province, but it was closed on Mondays. We had a walk about around the pagoda and a Tang Dynasty open mall for as long as Paula's legs would last. Then we took a taxi to a hot pot restaurant for an extravagant (for China) dinner.
