Xi'an scenic spots offer 50% discount with bullet train tickets

Tourists can now buy tickets at half price in 26 scenic spots in Xi'an, Shaanxi province, until the end of March in 2018, as long as they show their tickets of the newly opened Xi'an-Chengdu high-speed trains, the paper.cn reported on Wednesday.

The promotion is jointly organized by local departments including Xi'an Railway Bureau and Xi'an Tourism Bureau to boost the city's tourism as the new bullet train service linking Xi'an and Chengdu went into operation on Dec 6.

Many famed attractions such as Tang Paradise, Xi'an City Wall, as well as Banpo museum are on the list.
