When you are planning your <\/a><\/strong>Xi’an tour<\/a>, your focus will be definitely on Terracotta Warriors Museum. But the other equally interesting and important subterranean archaeological museum may slip under your radar, namely, Hanyang Tomb (The Han Yang Ling or the Yang Mausoleum of Han), the Tomb of Emperor Jingdi (188BC\u2014141BC), the fourth emperor of Han Dynasty (206 B.C.\u2013220 A.D.) which follows Qin Dynasty ( 221\u2013206 BC<\/span>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a wonderful cultural site, more interesting and engaging than the Terracotta Warriors. The well-structured site comprises the emperor’s tomb, empress’ tomb, the south and north accompanying burial pits, and human sacrifice graveyard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the emperor’s tomb laid out in the center, the site tells the strict hierarchical social structure. A must see!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note: The Emperor’s Tomb is still intact, not excavated yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Visiting Hanyang Tomb Archaeological Exhibition Hall<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The above-ground museum is a bit far from the underground museum mentioned above. There are buggies shuttling between the two sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Han Yang Ling Archaeological Exhibition Hall is a modern comprehensive museum. It has a unique style and advanced exhibition area. About 1700 exquisite artifacts unearthed in the past 30 years are on display in the two-storey building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A side trip to Hanyang Tomb can be arranged either after you arrive at Xian Airport or before you go to Xian airport since the site is easily accessible on the highway linking the airport, the tomb and the downtown of Xian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
