• The Museum of Qin Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses - Time: 9:00-12:00

Begin your journey at the Terracotta Army site. Follow the guide to uncover the incredible terracotta warriors, buried for over 2,000 years, and learn fascinating tales about China’s first emperor, Emperor Qin Shi Huang (259–210 BC).

The museum features three pits. The suggested visiting order is Pit 1 – Pit 2 – Pit 3 – Bronze Chariot Pit – the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, allowing you to follow historical clues from general to detailed insights.

Pit 1 is the largest, estimated to contain around 6,000 figures and a significant amount of bronze weaponry. The vast array of figures will astonish you, creating the sensation of being transported back to the Qin Dynasty when the soldiers were poised for battle.

Pit 2, though smaller than Pit 1, contains approximately 1,300 figures of terracotta warriors and horses. Its diverse collection makes it highly regarded among the three pits.

Pit 3 is the smallest, with only 72 terracotta warriors and horses. It is believed to have served as the army’s headquarters, directing the warriors in Pits 1 and 2.

The Bronze Chariot Pit showcases two large-scale painted bronze chariots. As burial objects, these chariots symbolize Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s vehicles. Known as “the King of Bronze Ware,” they are the earliest, largest, and best-preserved bronze artifacts globally.
