Itinerary
Emperor Qin Shi Huang (259 - 210BC), the first emperor of the first unified dynasty of Imperial China, left the UNESCO World Heritage Site to Xian. You will see a super large collection of life-size terra cotta sculptures in battle formations, reproducing the mega imperial guard troops. Being the most significant archeological excavations of the 20th century, the Terracotta Army is no doubt a must-see for every visitor to Xi'an.

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).
