Terra-cotta Warriors (Qin's Army), Xian China

The one place where I always want to visit since I was a child. Finally the chance came when I had a spare afternoon in Xian on the way to Tibet in June 2006.
The figures of warriors and horses located near the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor (210-209 BC). The figures are life-like and life-sized, it really looks like real soldiers standing there.

Very intresting he would want all those soldiers to protect him from attacks even though he's dead.He probly believed that the attackers would take his valuables that are in his tumb. Also did he really think that clay soldiers would protect him from trained and profesinal army people and soldiers and also worriors. thats just oin my oppinion though theres probly alot of different theory's and oppions.

Please provide more pictures of the Chariots & Horses...the pictures should be broken down on a piece that size so we can see the detail.
Respectfully,

Bonjour Dominic ~ I am very impressed by your website... As for the Terra-cotta warriors, i was able to see an exhibit in Montreal years ago and i was blow away then, i can just imagine to be at the site how it must feel like... Thank you for sharing with us the wonders of this world ~ Amicalement, Claudia from Quebec. Namaste...
