This reverse route avoids crowds by visiting Lishan Garden first—ideal if you can reach the Terracotta Warriors by noon!
Downtown → Lishan Garden → Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shi Huang → Downtown
Start: Leave Bell Tower Subway Station at 10:00 AM (arriving at 9:00 AM is better for buffer time).
Subway: Reach Qinling West Subway Station by 11:00 AM.
Final leg: Exit via Exit D, then take a taxi to Lishan Garden Visitor Center (≈¥10).
💡 Tip for groups: For 2+ people, a taxi (≈¥10 total) is better than buses (¥5/person). Buses often involve informal sales pitches, wasting time and money.
Entry: After entering, buy a shuttle bus ticket at the gate (¥15/ticket). Critical: No mid-route ticket purchases—skip it, and you’ll face 10+ km of walking!
Shuttle bus perks: Sit in the last row for scenic views. The bus stops at 3 spots:
Transfer: After Lishan Garden, take the free shuttle bus directly to the Terracotta Warriors Scenic Area.
Arrival time: Reach the Terracotta Warriors around 1:00 PM—morning crowds have left, and afternoon visitors haven’t peaked. You’ll easily get front-row views of each pit!
Guides: Essential for context!
