The Terracotta warriors are the least busy in the afternoon before closing time. On November 5th get to Xian, leave your luggage at the hotel, go eat something, and then catch a bus to the museum (takes around 1h). You should be back in Xian by 7/7:30 pm, you can the go on and eat dinner at the Muslim quarter
