Offered in: English

As a popular saying goes among Chinese tourists, “Tours to Xi’an have nothing to see but tombs”. Yes, countless ancient tombs and mausoleums of emperors, royal family members and the high ranking peoples are scattered everywhere in Xi’an and its surrounding area. Both on-the-ground or underground museums are also built nearby some of the most famous emperors’ mausoleums. Different with Pharaoh’s pyramids, people can not enter into these mausoleums to see what’s what inside, but visitors can go into those museums to immerse themselves in the rich historical facts and to see those fascinating relics.
