A new underground subway line linking downtown Xi'an to one of the world's most renowned archaeological discoveries, the Terracotta Warriors, is expected to go into operation by the end of this year.
一條新的地下地鐵線路將西安市區與最著名的兵馬俑連接起來，預計將於今年年底投入使用。
The new 25.3-kilometer Xi'an Metro Line 9 has 15 stations, and will take passengers to Qinlingxi Station, near the Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum, within 39 minutes from downtown Xi'an. Authorities said there would be a shuttle bus to ferry tourists from the metro station to the museum.

"The city has yearned for years for the operation of such a subway," said the chief engineer of Xi'an China Railway Rail Transit, adding that the opening of Metro Line 9 will help promote tourism in Xi'an, and attract a larger pool of tourists from home and abroad. The subway line incorporates "time travel" into its design theme, displaying ancient Chinese rhymes, ink painting and Chinese characters, "this is what makes the subway line emblematic and unique".
西安中鐵軌道交通總工程師表示：「西安多年來一直希望能夠開通這樣一條地鐵。」 地鐵9號線的開通將有助於促進西安旅遊業的發展，並吸引更多國內外遊客。地鐵將「時光旅行」融入設計主題，展示中國古韻、水墨畫和漢字，「這是這個地鐵的象徵和獨特之處」。
The metro line in the ancient capital, which was the seat of 13 Chinese dynasties, will link the southeastern and eastern part of the city, and function as a "tourism and culture" line, since it will carry passengers directly to famous scenic spots such as Huaqingchi, an imperial palace featuring hot springs, and the Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum, 30 kilometers east of downtown Xi'an.
西安曾是13個王朝的首都。這條地鐵將把城市的東南部和東部連接起來,作為一條「旅遊和文化」線路，它把乘客直接送到華清池和秦皇陵。
The trolley cars on Line 9 have been designed to travel at a top speed of 80 kilometers per hour, with modern technologies making the vehicles energy saving and environmentally friendly. Tourists applauded the opening of the subway line. Li Zhaonan, 29, who traveled from Beijing to Xi'an in September, said he had wanted to visit the Terracotta Warriors for a long time but didn't expect the site would be so far away.
