Pick up from your hotel in Xian aroud 2:00pm and drive to the site of Terracotta Warriors or a 2-3 hour visit. The original site was found by four local farmers drilling a well in 1974. Now it has turned into the most important attraction in Xian. The museum includes Pit 1, Pit 2 and Pit 3 as well as the exhibition hall of the chariots and horses. The Pit 1 is the largest of the three. The museum and the mausoleum are listed as UNSCO World Cultural Heritage.
After Chinese dinner, you are arranged to move on to Huaqing Hot Spring where a grand singing and dancing performance, a historical drama titled "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" is put on. The site of Huaqing Hot Spring is located under the Lishan Mountain just 5 km east of the Terracotta Warriors and Horse Museum. It is famous for the romantic love story of Emperor Xuanzong (685-762) and his concubine Yang Yuhuan in the Tang Dynasty (618-907). The Song of Everlasting Sorrow is very popular in each peak season especially from July to October. We suggest you book this tour at least 7 days in advance, or the tour may have to be canceled if tickets are sold out. After watching the performance, you are returned to your hotel in Xian around 10:00pm.
