亲爱的小李：
我在中国一切都好。我喜欢我的新学校和新同学。“十一”放假期间，我和父母打算去西安参观兵马俑。我听说兵马俑是一个令人惊叹的景点，我迫不及待想去了。对我来说，兵马俑的故事简直令人难以置信。那里有8 000多座俑像，直到20世纪70年代才为人所知，想想这一切，真是非常神奇。
我们还计划游览西安的其他景点。爸爸和我都期待着参观陕西历史博物馆，因为我爸爸热爱历史，而我听说这家博物馆被誉为“中国宝库”！我们还打算游览西安古城墙和其他一些著名景点。
我们打算坐火车，在十一假期开始的前一天出发。上午9：30到达西安之后，我们马上就开始观光，但愿我们能在火车上睡个好觉！
我想今天我写到这里吧！我很快会再给你写信和发照片的！你对即将到来的假期有什么安排吗？期待尽快收到你的来信。

兵马俑
来参观兵马俑吧：公元前3世纪制作的8 000多座俑像，守护着中国秦始皇的陵墓！每个俑像的相貌都不相同，这让研究人员认为每座俑像都是一名真实士兵的形象。这些俑像只是秦始皇巨大陵墓的一部分，而整座陵墓尚未被完全发掘。当时，70多万人花了近40年时间才建成这座陵墓。然而，直到1974年几位农民打井时(无意)发现了这座陵墓，现代人才知道这座皇陵！
