AS a metropolitan resident who is used to seeing towering buildings, an incessant stream of vehicles and people, I’ve always longed to have a taste of an ancient civilization, which is vigorous but exquisite, bold but elegant, natural but mysterious. I realized my dream when I went to Xi’an, a capital with a history of over 1,000 years. Xi’an was once the capital for eleven dynasties, including the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang. This is the place where China’s ancient civilization developed. Ancestors at Banpo created exquisite painted pottery; the Western Zhou Dynasty (about 1,066-771 B.C.) saw the height of the splendors of the bronze culture; the Qin Emperor Shi Huang (Qin Dynasty, from about 221-206 B.C.)
