About this place

It is called "the eighth wonder of the world" and is listed as the world cultural heritage by UNESCO. In March, 1974, when local farmers were digging the irrigation well, they found the underground army by chance. The warriors and horses had over 2200 years old, and 8000 pieces have been discovered in the three pits. They are not only tall in shape, but also were made precisely with accurate model and advanced techniques. Ten of thousands of unearthed real weapons which fall into complete categories are proved to be superb in technique.
