    Translation of the Terracotta Army Tour Description

    Tourists and the tour guide will meet at the Terracotta Warrior statue, then set off together to visit the three pits.

    Pit 1 is the largest one. Covering an area of 14,260 square meters, it houses over 6,000 terracotta warriors and horses arranged in a rectangular battle formation, recreating the military might of the Qin Dynasty.

    Pit 2 is like an "Elite Force Exhibition Hall". With a mixed formation of cavalry, crossbowmen and other troops, the details of their horse boots and saddles are clearly visible, allowing visitors to see the advanced warfare tactics of the Qin Dynasty.

    Pit 3 served as the "Command Center". Terracotta officer figures and items symbolizing command authority were unearthed here, and there are no large quantities of combat weapons.

  2. Huaqing Palace

    1 h 30 min Admission included

    Next, the tour guide will take everyone to visit this "millennium-old imperial garden".

    First, we'll head to the Tang Dynasty Imperial Garden Area. The gray-brick pavilions and towers feature the architectural style of the Tang Dynasty. The hot spring pools such as Lotus Pool and Crabapple Pool still have clear patterns on their walls and well-preserved drainage designs—these were once the bathing places of Emperor Xuanzong and Yang Guifei of the Tang Dynasty.

    Next, we'll go to the Former Site of the Xi'an Incident. The Five-Chamber Hall remains in its original state, with obvious bullet holes on the walls, allowing us to revisit that important period in history.

    Finally, we'll visit the Jiulong Lake Scenic Area. During the day, the garden reflected in the lake looks elegant; at night, the real-scene performance The Song of Everlasting Sorrow is staged here.
