The Eternal Romance of the Terracotta Warriors

 "Qin Shi Huang drank mercury, thinking it would give him eternal life."
- BBC, April 12, 2017


Upon arrival at the Xian train station, your English-speaking guide will meet you. He’ll take you to a local restaurant for a hot breakfast.
 

We'll then drive an hour outside the city to see Xian’s greatest attraction, and one of the greatest sites in all of China, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum. The Terracotta Army was once developed to accompany the tomb of China's First Emperor as an afterlife guard. There are thousands of unique life-size terracotta soldier figures representing the first emperor's defend troops - Qin Shihuang. They have been molded in parts, fired, then assembled and painted. Our experienced tour guide will show you all the most essential details of the museum that you can't afford to miss.  
 

After pausing for lunch at a closeby eatery, we’ll then drive back to Xian. You’ll get a chance to walk or take a bike ride around Xian's still functioning City Wall. Xian is one of the few Chinese cities that still has its city wall intact.  
 

For dinner, you will enjoy a unique dumpling banquet dinner of all shapes and sizes in downtown Xian. Then you will be taken to the train station to ride back to Beijing. You will have a soft sleeper room with the preference of a shared or r luxury cabin.


Day 3 : Arrive in Beijing

After arriving back in Beijing you'll take a taxi to go back to your hotel, thus ending your tour.

Terracotta Warriors Tour and Train Photos

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.

Tips to tour the Terracotta Warriors Museum by trains

Terracotta warriors are a category of ancient burial sculptures. In ancient times, human martyrdom was practiced, and slaves were an accessory to the slave owner during his life, and after the death of the slave owner, the slave was to be buried with him as a martyr. Terracotta warriors are burial objects made in soldiers and horses (chariots, horses, soldiers). The Terracotta Warriors of Qin are typical of the burial of the Terracotta Warriors in place of others. They are the pinnacle of the burial of the Terracotta Warriors in place of others. The Terracotta Warriors have reached such a high level in scale and realism thanks to the ancient craftsmen's wisdom.
