Alternatively can take a bus in front of moxy downtown hotel direct to terracota museum. 8am-2pm on the hour. No need booking, just be there before the hour. 30 yuan per pax on way.
Coming back also the same. Once you reached terracota museum,follow the person in charge to the meeting point place if you want to come back using the same mode of transport.
Hope this helps.
