Giant Wild Goose Pagoda
As the symbol of the old-line Xi'an, Giant Wild Goose Pagoda is a well-preserved ancient building and a holy place for Buddhists.
Standing in the Da Ci'en Temple complex, it attracts numerous visitors for its fame in the Buddhist religion and its simple but appealing style of construction.
Terracotta Army
The Terracotta Army in Xi'an, aka Terracotta Warriors and Horses, is a super large collection of life-size terra cotta sculptures in battle formations, reproducing the mega imperial guard troops of Emperor Qin Shi Huang (259 - 210BC), the first emperor of the first unified dynasty of Imperial China. It is well praised as one of the "Eight Wonders of the World".
Today, we will start the tour from Giant Wild Goose Pagoda. It was built in the Tang Dynasty (about 1,300 years ago) to house the Buddhist scriptures and statues brought back form India.
After spending 2 hours there, not far from the pagoda, you will then come to the City Wall, where you can appreciate the traditional beauty of Xi'an from different angles. Apart from hiking on the City Wall, you may also choose to ride a bike.
After that, we will leave you some free time to explore the nearby famous Muslim bazaar, where many delicious local snacks, unique and interesting souvenirs may arouse your interest.
Later we will enjoy the beautiful Grand Tang Dynasty Ever-birght City, which is a must-see place in Xi'an. Finally we will transfer you back to your hotel.
In the morning, we will take you to visit the most significant archeological excavations of the 20th century, the amazing Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum, which boasts the title of the World's Eighth Great Wonder.
Here, you may see the clay soldiers and horses of distinct facial expressions and positions orderly arranged in battle formations and the famous Bronze Chariots and Horses, as well as many delicate bronze weapons, presenting a real scene of war in ancient China.
At noon we will visit Yongxingfang and end our journey around 15:00pm. As the 2 days Xi'an tour comes to the end, our guide and driver will transfer you to the airport for your departure.
