Visiting terracotta army was the biggest disappointment of the summer for a few reasons: 1. Herds of tourists and terrible heat this July 2. Overpriced (for a hall of statues... ) Well, I could still recommend to go there to those, who don't have overestimated expectations and NOT during summer holidays. My tour included a visit to Huaqing palace in the morning which I liked better (all pictures but the first are from that site), even had some time to hike the "mountain". However, if you prepare in advance and learn a bit about Xian's incident, you can see a play of the same name there at the Scenic spot (I missed it because I didn't prepare well enough in advance and regretted afterwards) #terracottaarmy #xian

the sizes of the pit were huge, and it is near impossible to phatom how their made each warrior looking totally different and unidentical. a must go, similar to the great pyramids!

ispent the whole day at the Terracotta Warriors in Xian, to get the ticket is easy with the day trip purchased here from trip.com with a great English Tour Guide. There is a total of 3 pits you will be able to entering and see the Terracotta Warriors, the 2st pit is the biggest one worth seeing as the 8th wonders of the world while the 2nd pit, much smaller but we'll preserving conditions! The museum is also great to visit after the pit, i had a pleasure of learning ND seeing how many can build a great things like the Terracotta and it is definitely worth even to come back again!

the terracota warriors and Xi'an city, great places for people likes history

Go back in time in #Terracotta Warrior Museum

This visit went beyond the expectations.. the pictures I saw on the history books came to life (well, almost😹) but the majesty, the well preservation, the variety of details on the soldiers.. one of the best days I had in Xi'an. And I must say, I expected to see way more crowd, but in the end I could easily wander around the pit without incurring to any inconvenience.

Dorchester is a fascinating small city with history that stretches back to the Roman era. The Roman villa ruins is free to explore and sits alongside other attractions such as the hangman’s cottage and the beautiful canal. The city also has many lovely museums including a Tutankhamen exhibition, an old courthouse, and a museum that houses Hitler’s personal desk from his chancellory in Berlin.

It’s no secret that the Terracotta Warriors would make it onto the list of China’s world wonders. But I cannot explain to you how breathtaking they are. Such rich and long history, being played out and excavated right in front of you, is truly unforgettable. To beat the crowds, I recommend going during an off season. As a short person, I had to be patient when wading through crowds to see these beauties, but they were well worth it.

One of the nicer hotels of NYC. Ashley at the front desk is super nice, and the doormen are beyond exceptional. The rooms are extremely spacious, especially for an NYC hotel. This hotel goes ABOVE and beyond standards of service. I wish I could give them a 10 star. They are legitimately phenomenal. You simply cannot beat this hotels vibe or service. You will be treated like a king, they are so kind and accommodating, this is truly what a 5 star hotel is, a Michelin five star! We had such a wonderful stay! We felt right at home the entire time. Excellent staff, rooms were so spacious and extra clean. Bathrooms were beautiful and the beds were so comfortable. The staff was always friendly and accommodating. Room service was always delicious. Everything was top notch! Will be recommending to all our friends and family. Thank you again, for such a delightful stay and for helping us extend our stay when we needed to.- Pulido family#hotelstay #hotel
