Day 01One-day Xian tour
Early in the morning, our tour guide will meet you at the airport, the railway station or your own reserved hotel in Xian. You will first proceed to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum by our private transfer in about one hour. After getting off at the entrance to the museum, you will take an electric car to arrive at the three Terra Cotta Warriors Pits.
The No.1 Pit is the largest and first unearthed pit, which has over 6,000 full-scale terra cotta warriors and horses. At present, about 1,000 of them have been unearthed and ranked at a well-organized battle array. These warriors' facial expressions could be seen clearly although they have been buried for more than 2,000 years. Located to the northeast of No.1 Pit, the Terra Cotta Pit No.2 is more spectacular where the general, the kneeling archer and the warrior with saddle horse were excavated. The Pit No.3 is smaller than the previous two, but it is said to be the headquarters of the emperor's army. Our guide will accompany you to tour these three pits and see the selected collections at the affiliated exhibition hall.
To avoid the low-quality tourist food at shopping site eateries, we will serve you an a la carte lunch at the best local restaurant with elegant environment. After returning to downtown Xian, you will go to visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, which was originally built in 652 of the Tang Dynasty. The seven-storied pagoda, constructed with the emperor's support, was used to preserve the rare Buddhist materials brought back from India. If time permits, your tour will be extended to the ancient City Wall of Xian before we transfer you to the airport, the railway station or back to your hotel. You pleasant one day Xian trip comes to the end.(L)
