Beijing-Xian 2-day Express Tour including Terracotta Army

Itinerary of Beijing-Xian Two-day Tour

Two-day Beijing Express Tour to Terra Cotta Warriors and Army, City Wall and Big Goose Pagoda (TOUR CODE:  XABJ-2DAY)

Day 1: Beijing to Xian (L)


You will take a morning flight at 8 am, or 7 am from Beijing and arrive in Xian in two hours. Upon arriving at Xian Airport, you will see your guide and driver.  After a quick and refreshing lunch at a nearby restaurant, you’ll get a chance to walk or take a bike ride on Xian's still functioning city wall. Xian is one of the few Chinese cities that still has its city wall intact. 


The next attraction is the Big Goose Pagoda. This pagoda is surrounded by a still-functioning Buddhist temple. It was built in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) to study Buddhist scriptures as one of the most famous Buddhist pagodas in China. 


You'll then be taken for some relaxation and fun at the Huaqing Hot Springs. Huaqing has been a famous imperial bathing pool and various palace complexes over its 3,000-year history. It is a National Cultural Relic and one of China’s Hundred Famous Gardens.
 

Huaqing (Hua means brilliant, Chinese, or flowery; qing means pure or clear) Hot Springs is located about 35 kilometers east of the city of Xi'an, at the foot of Li Mountain. The present-day site is only a small part of the Tang Dynasty Palace, covering 85,560 square meters. You will see Nine Dragon Pool, Lotus Flower Pool, and Frost Drifting Hall.
 

For dinner, you’ll have a real treat with Xi'an unique dumpling banquet followed by the Tang Dynasty Music and Dance Show. Xian is where the art of creating the tastiest and delicate of dumplings was refined. No visit to the city is complete unless you partake of a Dumpling Dinner.
 

The Tang Dynasty Show is an outstanding exponent of this ancient stable and prosperous society, keeping alive its splendid culture and providing an insight into the peaceful lifestyle of the period. The show has its roots in folk fete to pray for a good harvest or a better life. Combining poetry with the skilled playing of musical instruments, singing, dancing, and stunning costumes, the modern presentation gives you an impressive view of ancient China, including its glorious history, brilliant arts, distinct traditions, and customs. 

  

For the night you will be staying at the four-star Ramada Hotel in Downtown Xian. The morning buffet (included) offer a huge variety of eye-catching northern Chinese food. 

 

Day 2: Xian-Beijing (B, L)


Following breakfast in the hotel, we'll drive to visit the famous Terracotta Warriors.  


The Eternal Romance of the Terracotta Warriors

 "Qin Shi Huang drank mercury, thinking it would give him eternal life."

The Terracotta Warriors is the result of the most significant archeological excavations of the 20th century. Work is ongoing at this site, which is around 1.5 kilometers east of Emperor Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum. People from around the world came here, including the Terminator. Before leaving the Xian museum, Schwarzenegger had some parting words for both the warriors and his fans. “I’ll be back,” said the former California governor. Of course!
 

Time permitting, we will walk the famous Muslim Quarter in Xian where you can try Xian's Chinese hamburgers.

Daniel displayed an immense wealth of knowledge.

We had a fantastic one-day tour of the Museum of Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses.  Our guide, Daniel, was all we could hope for; he was there to meet us when the overnight train arrived; displayed an immense wealth of knowledge about the site; and was very pleasant and entertaining throughout the day. 

I highly recommend this tour and this guide.
