The Terracotta Army was crafted to guard the tomb of Emperor Qin Shihuang. Discovered in 1974 by local farmers, over 2,000 soldiers and horses have been excavated from three burial pits, with an estimated 6,000 still underground. Spend 2-3 hours touring these archaeological sites with your guide.
If you wish to have lunch, inform your guide who can recommend nearby options at your own expense. After the tour, return transfers take you back to Xi’an Railway Station for the train ride to Beijing. Upon arrival, meet your driver and return to your Beijing hotel, concluding your tour.
