Really awesome UNESCO world heritage site, so you know it’s great. Really crowded though, 50-100k per day depending on the season. A little less crowded early in the day.
Pay a couple hundred extra for a tour guide in your own language, it’s well worth it. They know all the secret entrances and shortcuts between buildings, plus you’ll learn a lot more.
You don't need a expensive travel agency. Do the tour for your own. Take the bus nr 306 from the railway station. The ride takes approx. 1h and costs 8 Yuan.
One of the farmers that accidentally stumbled upon the terracotta warriors in the ‘70s is still alive and if your lucky, you can pay him some small money to autograph a book you buy in the gift shop.
Almost all of the artifacts are truly amazing and the fact that the haven’t dug the actual tomb makes you wonder what other unimaginable items are still in there.
