    The Museum of Qin Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses

    The Terracotta Warriors boast a time-honored history dating back to the Qin Dynasty over 2,200 years ago, crafted as the grand funerary accompaniment for Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of a unified China. With a history spanning more than two millennia, these magnificent sculptures have stood the test of time and witnessed the vicissitudes of Chinese civilization. The Terracotta Warriors have different images and vivid expressions. Each Terracotta Warrior has a distinct look and expression, a vivid testament to the superb skills of ancient craftsmen. It is a pearl in the history of ancient Chinese sculpture art and is known as the eighth wonder of the world and one of the great archaeological discoveries in the 20th century. As one of the most famous attractions in China, it has received more than 80 million domestic and foreign visitors.
