XI'AN: The unearthing of more terracotta warriors is such a treat for one tourist from Hubei that he has decided to return to Xi'an every summer for the next five years.

"I want to witness each step of the excavation of the Qin terracotta warriors and horses," Sun Yunfeng from Enshi told China Daily yesterday.

During the first two days of excavation, which began again on Saturday and is ongoing during visiting hours, archaeologists found two chariots standing close together, each with four horses.
