A UNSCO World Cultural Heritage Site, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum is the incredible legacy of the first emperor of China. The vast treasure lies 35 km east of Xi’an, at the foot of Lishan Mountain. Xi’an city’s museum only shows part of the region’s greatest and most important attraction.
According to old records, Emperor Qin Shi Huang ordered 700,000 workers to build his tomb after he determined the best place to be buried. Following his death 36 years later, the emperor was laid to rest in the grand underground tomb. It is reported to have taken 36 years to construct the tomb, and workers and supervisors involved in the project were buried alive within it. It lay beneath a 43m high mound and remained concealed for more than 2,000 years, until 1974, when three peasants discovered it while digging a well.
The tomb site shows not only a grand artistic achievement but also a virtual snapshot of life in the 2nd century B. C. Archeologists found thousands of life-size statues in the shapes of soldiers, horses, and chariots. It is believed that they were built at the site to serve as an exact representation of the imperial guard. The soldiers had been individually crafted, varying in size from 1. 78 to 1. 97 metres, and in weight from 100 to 300 kg, depending on their ranking in Qin Shi Huang’s army. A-mazingly each warrior has a different appearance and expression. The soldiers come complete with weaponry—including swords, bows, arrows, and lances—and appear in full uniform and battle formation.
