1 Day Private Tour to Terracotta Army & Huaqing Pool, No Shopping

In the morning, your private English-speaking guide will meet you at your hotel lobby and then escort you on a subway to the Terracotta Army Museum. To get there, we will first take Subway Line 9 to Huaqingchi station and then transfer to the tourist bus No. 613 for two stops. Over the course of the two-to-three-hour tour, the knowledgeable guide will deliver an informative commentary of the Terracotta Army to you. You will reach the three pits to see the vivid terracotta warriors, and also see the new exhibition recently launched. You will have some time for a self-paid lunch. There are many restaurants outside the museum, but most of them are touristy restaurants with low service. Clean Western or Chinese fast-food restaurants may be better choices.

Then, you will be guided to take tourist bus No. 613 to get to the Huaqing Pool. Aka Huaqing Palace, it is famous as an ancient palace for royal families to take hot spring baths from the Western Zhou Dynasty (1100 - 771 BC) to the Tang Dynasty (618-907). Backed by Mount Li and facing the Wei River, it was also one of the four imperial gardens in China, with highlights being five main hot spring pools and some preserved in red-walled Tang-style halls. After the tour, your guide will accompany you to take the Subway Line 9 from Huaqingchi station to Fangzhicheng station, and then transfer to Line 1 back to the city. Rest assured the guide will continue to escort you to your hotel by subway or bus.
