I recently travelled to Yangshuo. That is I took a cab to Ainshanmen (spelling?) Village. That is a really nice place out in the country. Close to the Dragon Jade River.6
Regarding Xi'an, IMO Hua Qing Pool is overpriced and not worth it. Also out in that area is the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. I haven't been there yet, but some of my visitors have liked it and some have thought it was OK.!! Be warned that "students" who want to practice English with you may actually be scammers. In Shanghai they try the Tea Ceremony Scam. In Beijing it's the Art Student Scam. Be very wary if a stranger wants to speak English with you, especially if you are in a tourist area. !!
