Big Trouble in little china. This blog is a journal of my adventures during my stay in China. Here I am in Shanghai. ( thats me in the blue ) Enjoy. Thursday, December 10, 2009. Day 2 in Xi'an finds us visiting a place called the Stone Forest. The stone forest contains hundreds of these huge slabs of marble and stone with ancient texts, poems, and other writings carved into them. The stones were used to preserve important texts, whereas paper might be burnt, or disintegrate. The Great Mosque 12/09/09.
