Drive to Famen Temple, which is situated in Famen Town. With a history dating back 1,700 years, the temple was built during the Eastern Han Dynasty (25-220). In addition to its long and rich history, the site has also become a place of pilgrimage for millions of travelers and Buddhists alike as it houses one of Gautama Buddha's finger bones.

Another spot to see is the Qianling Mausoleum. It is a tomb shared by Emperor Gaozong of Tang and his consort, China's first (and only) governing empress Wu Zetian. Qianling Mausoleum is encircled by many satellite tombs which belong to the princes, princesses, high ministers and concubines of the emperors in Tang Dynasty.

You will also visit Qianling Museum, a museum of mausoleums. Built in 1978, the museum is situated around the site of Qianling Mausoleum, and it boasts about 9000 cultural relics, of which more than 4000 were unearthed from five excavated tombs and others were collected through public channels.

There will be a chance for you to see imitated Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses by a shopping stop, though the Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses scenic spot is not included in the tour.

After the tour you will be transferred back to your hotel and finish the tour today.
