About this activity
In the morning, your English-speaking guide will meet you at your hotel lobby and visit Banpo Neolithic village which is a New Stone Age site, dating from approximately 5,000 to 4,000 B.C. It is one of the most comprehensive examples of a Neolithic agricultural settlement in the world covering an area of 5 to 6 hectares (12 to 15 acres) that is surrounded by a ditch, probably for defense, of 16 to 20 feet (5 to 6 meters) wide. The houses were circular and built with mud and wood with overhanging thatched roofs sitting on low foundations.

Next, you will be transferred to visit the world wonder, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum. The museum is comprised with three vaults and the vaults are approximately 1 mile (1.5 kilometers) away from the Mausoleum of First Emperor Qin Shihuang. It is reputed as the largest underground military base in the world. The 7,7995 square feet (14,629 square meter) Vault 1 was excavated in 1975. The 6,000 life-size terracotta warriors and horses are acclaimed as the “eighth wonder of the world.” In the pits, bronze swords, spears, crossbows and other weapons were found, all well preserved. Vault 2 covers an area of 19,685 square feet (6,000 square meters) and contains 1,000 odd pottery men and horses. Vault 3 is only 1,640 square feet (500 square meters) large and has 68 guards. 1,640 square feet (500 square meters).

Later, continue your visit to the lively Muslim Quarter, where all kinds of delicious local foods and souvenirs can be found. Approximately 328 feet (100 meters) from the bell tower to the west of Xi'an city center, you will enter through the Drum Tower doorway into the Xi'an Muslim historic district. At the end of the tour, your guide and driver will transfer you back to your hotel where this private day tour is concluded.
