The Eternal Romance of the Terracotta Warriors

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

A group of peasants uncovered some pottery while digging for a well nearby the royal tomb in 1974. Life-size terracotta figures of warriors and horses arranged in battle formations are the museum's star features. They are replicas of what the imperial guard should look like in those days of pomp and vigor. Now it's time for you to discover.

After pausing for lunch at the Museum restaurant, we’ll 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.

Fly Back to Beijing in the Evening

Following your visit to the City Wall, we will treat you a quick dinner. You’ll take an evening flight at either 8 or 9 pm to Beijing. Your guide will help you with the check-in process.

He was the BEST!

I wanted to write a review for Daniel. He was THE BEST tour guide and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. Both Daniel and our driver were so kind to our family. Thank you so much for putting us with him for our Terracotta Warriors and Xian one day tour from Beijing!

Tips to tour the Terracotta Warriors Museum

The Terracotta Warriors Pit, one of the burial pits accompanying the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, was excavated in 1974-1977, 1 km east of the mausoleum. Pit No. 1 is to the south, 216 metres long and 62 metres wide, with an area of 13,260 square metres. Pit No. 2 is 124 metres long and 98 metres wide from east to west and covers an area of 6,000 square metres. Pit No. 3 covers an area of 520 square metres. A total of 800 warrior figurines, 18 wooden chariots, and more than 100 ceramic horses were excavated. Extrapolating from the current arrangement of the Terracotta Warriors, there are probably 7,000 warrior figurines in these three pits, 100 chariots and 100 horses. The pottery figurines are tall, generally around 1.8 meters.
