The Museum of Qin Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses

Visiting the Terracotta Warriors and Horses is a highlight of any Xi'an tour, and gives you the chance to see more than 8,000 life-size Qin Dynasty-era model soldiers.

Rich in History
We booked the ticket only option and it was very convenient because the venue was very very busy and all we had to do was use our passports to enter without waiting in lines to purchase tickets. The site is amazing with a lot to see, just remember to take the bus to the Emperors Mausoleum section as we did not know about this beforehand and stumbled upon it by surprise. We would suggest going in the off peak season as the venue is very crowded during Spring festival and the pits are difficult to access, but we managed to get great photos.

Great option to Visit the Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site
It was a great option since I didn't have WeChat to book in advance so they were able to do that for me and just had to show the passport on arrival.
Convenient service for an independent traveller. The place was amazing but expect lots of crowds to see this unique warriors.
Communication with Andy was great all the time and I would totally recommend it
