Museum of Terracotta Warriors and Horses (AAAAA Scenic Spot) is the burial pit of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. More than 1000 terracotta warriors have been unearthed here, each with different expressions and gestures. Standing in front of the huge underground army, you will feel the extraordinary momentum of the emperor who swept the six countries and unified the world 2000 years ago.
When Ying Zheng, the first emperor of Qin Dynasty, ascended the throne at the age of 13, he began to build his own cemetery. He expropriated hundreds of thousands of people all the year round, which consumed a lot of national strength and lasted for 38 years. In the spring of 1974, the terracotta warriors were rediscovered by local farmers digging wells and digging pottery warrior heads. At present, three pits have been dug. The No. 1 Terracotta Pit in the scenic spot is the earliest excavated pit with the largest area. Pit 2 and Pit 3 are respectively on both sides of Pit 1. There are nearly 8000 pottery figurines and horses of the same size as real people and horses in the three pits. There are different arms such as charioteers, cavalry and infantry, which are arranged in order. There are also exhibition rooms of unearthed cultural relics and bronze chariots and horses in the Qinling Mausoleum, respectively displaying unearthed bronze weapons and two bronze carriages.
The Terracotta Warriors and Horses Scenic Spot is full of tourists every day. You can avoid the peak when visiting, and start from the smallest pit, No. 3. After the tour, tourists can take the scenic spot It takes about 5 minutes by bus to the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.

Tourist evaluation :
@ Well, just play : Seeing it with your own eyes is different from what you imagined! It's shocking! Every character has different facial expressions! And there were color ones when they were just unearthed! One glance is really enough to dream back to the Qin Dynasty! And this is just the tip of the iceberg! The king's tomb has not been excavated yet. I hope we can see it again when the technology is mature and more miracles are unearthed!
@ Turn on the computer and turn on LOL : To see the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, suggestions: ① Be sure to look after the 5 vehicles. How to distinguish Baidu tourism is very clear. The most important thing is to buy tickets on the vehicle and not collect money from passengers under the vehicle. ② Many people on the Internet said that they would like to ask for explanations and tell you a way to save money. You can search Baidu and find the guide words of the Terracotta Warriors. I just want to rent an electronic explanation of the Terracotta Warriors while watching this. ③ The copper chariot and horse exhibition hall is in the exhibition hall, not in the three pits. Copper chariots and horses are replicas, dear ones. I didn't know until I went there, but I felt shocked when I saw them. ④ It is suggested to walk through three pits in the order of No. 1, No. 3 and No. 2, so as not to take the wrong way, but the disadvantage is that No. 2 and No. 3 are both entered through the back door.. ⑤ Online ticket selling is not cheap, so it's better to go to the scene to buy tickets. ⑥ If you go to the Terracotta Warriors at noon or in the afternoon, there will be many fewer people! It's all personal experience!
@ Hurry to: If you don't get to the Terracotta Warriors, you have not come to Xi'an. The Terracotta Warriors are in Lintong, tens of kilometers away from Xi'an. There is You-5 bus in the east of the railway station. Remember to keep an eye on the stop sign and queue up. Don't get on the fake bus. You-5 is on the highway, and the fake bus goes down. So far, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses have excavated three pits. Pit No. 1 is the earliest excavation, the largest pit in area, and also the most shocking. Pit No. 2 is very small, and pit No. 3 is not small. It is only for protection that all the pits are covered with soil and backfilled for protection. The three pits are arranged in a zigzag pattern, and each pottery figurine has a different face, hair style, posture, and expression. Pottery figurines and horses were originally painted, but now most of them have peeled off and become discolored. There is a battery car at the entrance to the Terracotta Warriors, which costs 5 yuan and can also be walked. The ticket is a pass ticket to the First Imperial Mausoleum. There is a free bus to go to the entrance. In addition, the souvenir market outside the door is chaotic. Remember to keep an eye on the property. Remember to bargain hard to simulate the Terracotta Warriors and Horses. If you eat, don't think about it here.
