Re: Terra-Cotta Warriors
Strongly recommended to go with a guide. A Wonder of the World.
Re: Terra-Cotta Warriors
We hired Michael Yang. He is an English speaking tour guide. I emailed him from the US and he promptly replied to my email. He asked about choices for drivers, vehicle and what we wanted to do. He was able to accommodate all of our needs and he was flexible during the day. We even got to bike around the City wall in Xian.
His knowledge of the Terra Cotta Warriors and the city of Xian made it a very informative day.

Terra-Cotta Warriors
Terra-Cotta Warriors is an miracle to me, i went there in 2006, the trip to Xi`an, the Terra-Cotta Warriors gave the strongest impression,the site consists of 3 pits, simply named “pit 1”, “pit 2” and “pit 3” and pit 1 is the largest and most impressive of the three.
It is really hard for me to image thousands years ago, how the people built such a hug project without the modern technical. We have to say people in the ancient time they are really brilliant.
I will be there soon.
Hmmm, stil no time for Terra-Cotta Warriors this year, i was preparing this trip for a long time but the time table seems like not easy to handle with. But i will make it next year for sure.
