This personalized service ensures a memorable and hassle-free half-day tour, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the incredible history of the Terracotta Army.
Firstly, you'll be transferred to the Terracotta Warriors site, which is approximately a 40-minute drive. The Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum, often referred to as the "Eighth Wonder of the World," is renowned for its remarkable sculptures and is considered one of the most significant archaeological discoveries of the 20th century. The museum showcases an impressive array of 179 burial pits, each revealing unique aspects of the Qin Dynasty's burial practices. These pits offer invaluable insights into the ancient burial system and the architectural features of the mausoleum complex. Remarkably, none of the burial pits has survived intact, with none escaping the ravages of time and fire. This adds a layer of intrigue and awe to the already astounding history of the Terracotta Army.
Three pits have been excavated and can be visited. The largest pit, Pit 1, is believed to contain 6,000 warriors (only 2,000 are on display) and horses. They are all life-sized, facing east, and are lined up in battle formation. What is particularly striking is the fact that no two of them are alike. Pit 2, which is smaller than Pit 1, contains around 1,300 warriors and horses, and it is still being excavated. It is worth mentioning that the figurines of general, the soldier on the horse, and the kneeling soldier were the first to be discovered in this pit. The smallest pit, Pit 3, contains 72 warriors and horses, and is believed to be the army headquarters due to the number of high-ranking officers unearthed there. The Bronze Chariot Pit exhibits two painted bronze chariots in a large scale in a small museum to the right of the main entrance. The bronze chariots are the earliest, largest, and best-preserved bronze artifacts in the world, crowned as “the King of Bronze Ware”. The last site you will visit is the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang. According to historical records, the palace is filled with precious stones, and underground rivers of flowing mercury defend against intruders. Considered too dangerous to excavate, 95% of the mausoleum is still buried and its contents remain secret. The tomb has little to see, so we will visit the site by viewing at a distance instead of taking a close look at.
After your visit to the Terracotta Warriors Museum, you’ll be transferred to the best viewpoint overlooking the vast Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang. From this vantage point, you’ll be awe-struck by the immense scale of the mausoleum complex, which stretches out before you in all its grandeur. Your tour guide will share fascinating insights into why Qin Shi Huang chose this particular site, explaining how he intended for his legacy to continue in death as it did in life. You’ll learn about the strategic considerations behind the mausoleum's location and the elaborate planning of the underground palace. This panoramic view offers a profound perspective on the sheer magnitude of Qin Shi Huang’s final resting place and the extraordinary ambition of his eternal rule.
After concluding your visit to the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, your guide will accompany you back to your hotel, train station, or airport, ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey. The professional driver will handle all aspects of transportation, providing a relaxing ride as you reflect on the day’s experiences. Throughout the trip, your guide will be available to answer any final questions, offer additional insights, or provide recommendations for the rest of your stay in Xi'an. This attentive service ensures a seamless and enjoyable conclusion to your tour, whether you're heading back to your accommodation or continuing your travels from the train station or airport.
