When travelling from the airport to Xi'an, ask your taxi driver or guide to stop here. It is only a short distance from the airport. Alternatively, give yourself enough time (2-3 hours) to stop on the way to the airport. This museum is a must-see in Xian. It is well constructed and the pits (very small by Terracotta Warriors comparison)... More

I visited China last Jun 2012. and would like to recommend an outstanding Museum in Xian, named HANYANGLING. Located east of Xian airport. we were lucky to have some spare time (before departing Xian), and a very patriotic, knowledgeable guide to take us there. There is no public transportation to the site. That must have been the reason there were... More

We visited a couple of months ago and only on reviewing my photos did I think that I should have left a review. This is an excellent site and our guide urged us to make some time to visit and he was right to do so. Totally different to the life size terracotta warriors you can get up close to... More

This tomb and museum is spectacular and much more intimate than the famous football-size fields of Bin Ma Yong, the Terra Cotta Warriors of the Emperor Qin Shi Huang. In June 2012 I visited Xian's Han Yang Ling tomb northwest of the current city of Xi-An. This underground museum is housed within a tumulus with 80 radiating burial sites totaling... More

This museum is near Xi'an Xianyang International Airport, while visit it before check-in is not suitable, since there is so many things to see.

The Tomb of Emperor Jing Di (Han Yang Ling Museum) is even better than the TerraCotta Warriors ! You walk on glass walkways over the actual Excavation site - so you feel as if you can actually touch the clay figurines which were commissioned to be made by Emperor Jing Di. As he was very much 'for' the people -... More

This was one of the most fascinating attractions I saw in a six week trip to China. Lonely Planet stated that this (along with the Terra Cotta Warriors) was one of the two top attractions in Xi'an, and I would go further: I think it might be better than the Terra Cotta Warriors for a few reasons. First, the museum... More

I STRONGLY encourage people to make a trip to the Han Yang Ling Tombs (the tomb of Emperor Jingdi). This site hasn't hit the tourist trails yet, so it's relatively peaceful and calm compared to the famous terracotta warriors. Unfortunately it's not as easy to get to via public transport. Most taxi drivers will be more than happy to take... More

Go here, absolutely worth the trip and every penny. China's best museum that lets you get close to ancient artifacts and see how Chinese emperors rivaled the Egyptians in tomb building.
