🌟Historical background
The Terracotta Army of Emperor Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum is a burial pit accompanying Emperor Qin Shi Huang, located 1.5 kilometers east of Emperor Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum in Xiyang Village, south of Lintong District, Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province. It is a type of ancient tomb with an area of 22,780 square meters. In March 1974, Pit 1 of the Terracotta Warriors was discovered. In 1976, Pit 2 was excavated at the eastern end of Pit 1. In May of the same year, Pit 3 was discovered. From 1979 to 1994, Pits 1 to 3 were opened in batches.
The Terracotta Warriors mainly consist of a large number of pottery figures and horses, which were used in ancient times as burial objects to replace human sacrifices. So far, about 8,000 pottery figures and horses have been discovered, mainly divided into charioteers, cavalry, and infantry. In 1961, the Mausoleum of Emperor Qin Shi Huang was announced by the State Council as one of the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units.
The scene was very shocking, really Qin Yu is nameless, but thousands of people. The explanation is very good and very detailed, especially Lishan's explanation is humorous and interesting. Everyone must bring an explanation, otherwise what you see is that the pit is meaningless.
Terracotta Warriors and Horses: Nothing to say, the eighth wonder of the world, through explanations, you can understand the history and humanities. The resurrected legion performance can let you feel the story of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses as you are. Huaqing Palace: To put it bluntly, it is the place where Yang Guifei bathed, all of which are ruins, just a few pits. There is also the Xi'an Incident site. Tour guide: More responsible, the arrangement is in place, and the lunch buffet tastes good.
I went to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, only to see the Resurrection Legion, only to know that those Terracotta Warriors and Horses are their families, it is worth going once, and it is worth seeing once in a lifetime.
Very good, history is very worth knowing. The ancients have such a level of creation, like a miracle. The first time I came to Xi'an, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, Huaqing Pool are all places to go, it is really very good! ! ! Be sure to explain
The Terracotta Warriors and Horses are still worth a visit, especially the No. 1 pit. The ticket is very convenient, almost seconds to issue the ticket, and then swipe the ID card to enter the venue. After entering, I swiped the ID card twice, and there was a security check for the first time. It is very large and spectacular, you can make an appointment to explain. Overall, you can finish shopping in more than 2 hours.
The only meaning is to see the terracotta warriors and horses on display. The interpreters in the venue are more professional when explaining the pit number one, two and three. But the mechanism of the museum pulling people to shop is very bad. If you are interested, you are naturally willing to buy it. If you are not interested, it is useless to say anything. Seeing that there is no shopping, just throw people down and let people go out. Let me have a little less impression of Xi'an's service.
As a must-check-in attraction in Xi'an, the real scene is still very shocking. There is a direct bus to the gate of the scenic spot from the subway to Huaqingchi Station. It is necessary to rent a guide at the door. The tickets also include Lishan Garden. You can take a free bus in the parking lot to visit!
The tour guide Chen Yu is humorous, with a thick cultural foundation, a lively explanation, and a good mood for tourists. Not only can he talk about the hidden knowledge of the attractions, but also can combine the current cultural rejuvenation content to let tourists, especially children feel the long and heavy history of the motherland. I also took a vivid patriotic education class. I deeply felt the unique charm of the ancient capitals of the 13th Dynasty. I remembered the prosperity of my great Qin, Dahan and Datang. During the Spring Festival, I can go to Xi'an, the ancient capital, and hope to have the opportunity to come to Xi'an again. Chang'an Changle!
