Xi'an - Terracotta Warriors

The Terracotta warriors is the thing that I most wanted to see in
China and they did not disappoint.

These underground pits hold over 6000 life size warriors and horses.
Each warrior is different and are arranged in battle formation to
protect the emperor's tomb. The site is actively being excavated as
they piece together the warriors from the bits of pottery found in the
dirt.
