Home - China Travel Guide - Xian Travel Guide - Terra-Cotta Warriors
  • The Qin Terra Cotta Warriors are some of the oldest ever found in China and the biggest. They range from 1.78 meters to almost 2 meters in height. The warriors were all made by hand and the bodies were made separately from the rest of the soldiers and all the pieces then joined together. Although several chambers have been uncovered, the official entrance has yet to be found. The tomb took 36 years to build at the request of the emperor, and the workers were said to have been buried alive in the tomb. In 1980, two sets of large painted bronze chariots and horses were unearthed and by 1988, both were open to the public. Besides the Great Wall, the Terra Cotta Warriors are perhaps the most important relics for tourists to see when visiting China.
