Breaking protocol, in a first, Xi met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a sprawling government guest house in Xi'an, the capital of Shaanxi province, from which the president's family hails.
The visit to the central Chinese city marks the first time Xi has hosted a visiting foreign leader in his ancestral home, a conscious display of hospitality underscoring his intention to build a strong personal relationship with Modi.
Amid heavy security, large crowds turned out to greet his motorcade, prompting the prime minister to tweet: "Am very glad to see the enthusiasm among the people of China. People-to-people ties are always special."

Both President Xi and PM Modi attended a spectacular cultural program with traditional Chinese and Indian dances. A treat for the eyes. Here it is..... Enjoy!
