New regulations for visiting the Terracotta Warriors!

The Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, also known as Lishan Garden, contains the core part of the mausoleum. The Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor is very large, covering an area of 56.25 square kilometers, equivalent to two Macau administrative regions. Today, let's explore Lishan Garden together. After entering the Lishan Garden scenic area, a warm reminder to everyone: be sure to take the sightseeing bus here, which costs 15 yuan and is not expensive because the entire tomb area is very large. We can visit in a clockwise direction, starting with the burial pits. We are now visiting the first burial pit in Lishan Garden, called the 9901 burial pit. It was the first burial pit discovered in 1999, also known as the Hundred Entertainments Pit. The terracotta warriors in this burial pit are completely different from those we saw in pits 1, 2, and 3. The Hundred Entertainments Warriors are divided into two types: strength type and skill type. What exactly do they do? They should be the cultural troupe of the First Qin Emperor. Next, we come to the highlight of Lishan Garden, the Qinling Painted Bronze Chariots. It is said to be the most expensive chariot in China. Let's explore this pit together. These are the two chariots discovered at that time, which is very shocking. When these two chariots were discovered, they had already broken into more than 3,000 pieces. It took experts eight years to restore them before they were officially opened to the public. Follow me to take a closer look. This is the first chariot of our bronze chariots, also called the High Chariot or Standing Chariot. The person on the chariot is in a standing posture, so it is also called the Step-by-Step Ascending Chariot. Let's take a look. The charioteer has a high rank, wearing a hat called Shuangjuanwei and Guan, also known as Senior Military Officer, who was the driver for the First Qin Emperor. Look at this chariot, called the Comfort Chariot, the second chariot discovered. Why is it called the Comfort Chariot? Because when it was excavated, four characters, Comfort Chariot, were found on the accessories. The chariot stand is round, and the body is square, representing the ancient concept of round heaven and square earth. We call this chariot the Warm and Cool Chariot because it can provide warmth in winter and coolness in summer, which means it was an air-conditioned chariot over 2,000 years ago. After viewing the bronze chariots, opposite is the K006 burial pit, also known as the Civil Official Warriors Pit. The terracotta warriors in this pit have a high rank, equivalent to the civil officials of the First Qin Emperor. On the civil officials, there is a Bi Shi and Xiao. What are they for? Ancient civil servants would use a small knife to scrape off mistakes on classical texts, so we call ancient civil servants Dao Bi Li. The 120 yuan ticket covers everything. If you want to see all the terracotta warriors, it takes a full five hours, plus meal time, a total of six hours. So friends, be sure to allocate extra time. Some people ask me, what if the weather is too hot and children can't stand it? Don't worry, except for pit 1, which has no air conditioning, our bronze chariot exhibition hall, pit 2, and pit 3 all have air conditioning and are very cool. I have summarized a detailed guide, remember to like and save it! Here is a brief and concise guide to the Terracotta Warriors: Clothing: In summer, wear light and breathable clothing, and sun protection clothing is essential. Food: There are various snack shops around the scenic area. A bowl of cold noodles costs about 15 yuan, and a meat sandwich costs about 12 yuan. Accommodation: The prices of hotels around vary. Budget hotels cost about 200-300 yuan per night. Transportation: - Public transportation: You can take the subway and transfer to a bus, costing about 10 yuan. - Taxi: It costs about 150 yuan from the city center. Tickets: Full-price ticket is 120 yuan. Tour suggestions: - Book tickets in advance. - Hire a tour guide for about 100-200 yuan to better understand the history.
