Description

At the designated time, we'll collect you from your Xian hotel and head east. After roughly an hour's drive, we'll reach our first destination: the Terracotta Warriors.

Next, we'll return to Xian's city center for a delightful traditional Chinese lunch at a local restaurant, featuring a variety of regional specialties that provide a perfect taste of local cuisine.

After this refreshing meal, we'll venture to the cave houses in Panggou village. These dwellings are characteristic of the northern Shaanxi region. We'll embark on a brief half-hour tour to gain insights into the daily life of ancient inhabitants.
