If you favour the expensive option, just grab a cab — drivers will start the bidding at ¥150 (or more) one-way, though you should be able to get them down to ¥200 return, including they take up to 2hr to reach the tombs. Finally, you could waiting time. Alternatively, green and red buses (no number, though with Xixia written on the front) run from a stop just east of Nanmen Square; these cost just ¥2, though to reach the tombs. Finally, you could split the difference and take a bus to Xixia district (1hr; ¥1), from which it’s a far cheaper taxi-ride to the ruins (¥25 each way).",
