I arrive in Xian on April 25 at 10:30 am & leave at 8am on the 27th. I know I have to see the Terracota Soldiers. Do I also go see the Big & Little Pagodas? I would love suggestions on the best use of my time and a nicer place to stay.

I am also staying for 2 days in October. My proposed itinerary is as follows:

Day 1:

Arrive by overnight train at 9:00am

Taxi to hotel (Grand Mercure)

Bus to Terracotta Warriors

Lunch

Big Goose Pagoda

Dinner in Muslim Quarter or Tang Dyansty Show

Day 2:

Bell and Drum Towers

Bike around City Walls

Explore Muslim Quarter

Grand Mosque

Dinner (Any resturant suggestions?)

Depart on overnight train at 10:00pm

Is this doable for my mother and I? Or should we hire a guide to make it a smoother trip?
