Your guide will give you directions for returning to your hotel. The Great Mosque and the Bell and Drum Tower Square are within walking distance of the Bazaar. The Bazaar offers a number of excellent choices for dinner. If you prefer not to go to the Muslim Bazaar, your guide will take you back to the hotel after dropping the others off at the Bazaar.

Meal: Not included

Today your guide and driver will drive you for an hour to visit the Hanyangling Mausoleum (Tomb of Emperor Jingdi) first. Actually this is an on the site museum and another highlight of Xi’an. In the company of your guide, you will walk on glass over top of the original excavating site to see the mini terracotta warriors and animal statues which may give you an intriguing perspective. Go through the exhibition hall, and listen carefully to your expert guide’s explanation of the lifestyle, custom and culture of Chinese ancient people in Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-24AD).

Then, drive to the Great Mosque in the core area of Xi’an City. The mosque’s location at the Muslim Quarter is very convenient, with many souvenir stores and local food restaurants. You can have your lunch here with your guide’s suggestions. After that, your guide will escort you to visit the Great Mosque, which was first built in 742AD during the Tang Dynasty. It is one of the oldest, largest and most well-preserved Islamic mosques in China.

In the afternoon, you will spend time at Shaanxi History Museum. It is the first large-scale modern national museum in China, famed as the pearl of the ancient capital Xi’an and the treasure house of China.

With suggestions from the former guests, it is enough to see the pagoda and the statue of Monk Xuanzang at the south square outside the temple.
