Itinerary
In the early morning, you will head to Shanghai Airport and take the prearranged flight to Xi’an by yourself. Upon your arrival, your private guide will be waiting for you at Xi'an airport and then a comfortable chauffeur-driven car will transfer you to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum. With one hour on the way, your expert guide will give you some background information of the world wonder that you are going to explore. Follow your guide to see the three excavated pits with more than 8,000 pottery soldiers, horses, and chariots in total, and then the Bronze Chariots and Horses Exhibition Hall. You will have at least two and a half hours to explore this significant site. Lunch is not included and you could enjoy a hearty lunch on your own at a nearby restaurant, following the advice from your considerate guide.
Drive you back to the downtown and the tour continues with a visit to the ancient City Wall. With a history of over 600 years, it is the most complete city wall that has survived in China. Take a leisurely walk on the wall to feel how the past meets present at this vibrant city with splendid culture. If you are skillful in bicycle riding, you may rent a bike to ride on the wall. It should be an exciting and memorable experience. The bike rental fee is at your own expense.
The last stop will be the Muslim Bazaar, the most thriving area of the city. A variety of snack stands, restaurants and handicraft shops are lined along the lanes of the block, waiting for your discovery. After that, your tour guide and driver will transfer you back to the airport for your onward flight back to Shanghai.

About Xian
Xi'an, capital of many Chinese dynasties and the start of the Silk Road, is home to the Terracotta Army and intact Ming city walls.
The Terracotta Army, found by farmers digging a well in 1974, stands in vast pits outside the city: thousands of life-size clay warriors, horses and chariots buried to guard the tomb of Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor. Each figure has its own face, and the scale is staggering.
Top-ranked sights in Xian: Emperor Qinshihuang’s Mausoleum Site Museum (Terracotta Warriors), Xi'an City Wall (Chengqiang), Big Wild Goose Pagoda (Dayanta).
