Exploring Yulin, Shaanxi's hidden gemYULIN, China -- "So what do you think about the boys in Yulin?" asked a local bus driver in Xian, where we were on the last leg of a press tour of northwest China. International tourists may be more familiar with nearby city Xian, the ancient imperial capital famed for its life-sized terracotta warriors guarding the tomb of China's first emperor Qin Shi Huang. Yulin is a gem of a town that sits only an hour's flight away from Xian, yet remains virtually unknown outside of China. Cui said plans are underway to speed up the development of its infrastructure to boost local tourism, for example upgrading its local airport to an international gateway.
