Tour Itinerary
Tour Itinerary: (Lunch)
Right from the hotel you are taken to world-famous tombs to see the Terra-Cotta Warriors and are regarded by many as The Eighth Wonder of the World. 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. Shortly after you travel to hot springs known as The Huaqing Hot Springs which was the site for many emperors during five dynasties. It is located under the Lishan Mountain just 5 km east of the Terracotta Warriors and Horse Museum. It is famous for both its spring scenery and the romantic love story of Emperor Xuanzong and his concubine Yang Guifei in the Tang Dynasty.
(Service End)
The Qin Terra Cotta Warriors are some of the oldest ever found in China and the biggest. They range from 1.78 meters to almost 2 meters in height. The warriors were all made by hand and the bodies were made separately from the rest of the soldiers and all the pieces then joined together. Although several chambers have been uncovered, the official entrance has yet to be found. The tomb took 36 years to build at the request of the emperor, and the workers were said to have been buried alive in the tomb. In 1980, two sets of large painted bronze chariots and horses were unearthed and by 1988, both were open to the public.
