Silent warriors guarding for thousands of years: Exploring the Terracotta Warriors of the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum

"Unknown but each with their own charm, they protect the country and the vast mountains and rivers with their bodies of soil. How can they be called nameless? These mountains and rivers are their names" - a tribute to national treasures. The Qin Shihuang Mausoleum Museum and the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum, this is a shocking experience of traveling through time and space! [Exploration Strategy] Tickets: Adult ticket price is 120 yuan, and students enjoy a half-price discount (including visits to the Qin Shihuang Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum and Mount Li Garden). Transportation: Take Metro Line 9 to Qinling West Station, and take a taxi directly after exiting the station. Tour route: It is recommended to visit in the order of Pit 1 → Pit 3 → Pit 2 → Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum. At present, there are only three burial pits open to the public in the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum, among which Pit No. 1 is the most spectacular and largest. 【Visit Tips】 There is no air conditioning installed in Pit 1, only ceiling fans. If you want to avoid the heat, it is recommended to visit after the cool autumn for a better experience. Pit No. 2 displays representative terracotta warriors, including generals, soldiers, kneeling archers, etc. The kneeling archer figurine is regarded as the treasure of the museum. It is the only complete pottery figurine among the Terracotta Warriors and Horses excavated so far, and it still retains the bright color of cinnabar from two thousand years ago. Here, you can admire the unique features of each Terracotta Warrior up close and truly experience what it means to have “a thousand faces for a thousand men.” If you come to Xi'an, the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum Museum is definitely a visual feast not to be missed, a dialogue with thousands of years of history!
