The Terracotta Army was created during the reign of China's first emperor, Qin Shi Huang, around 210-209 BCE. This massive collection of clay sculptures was designed to accompany the emperor in the afterlife and was discovered in 1974 near Xi'an, Shaanxi province. The army consists of thousands of life-sized figures, including soldiers, horses, and chariots.
Jacques Shirac, president of France, once said: "One can't claim to have visited China unless one has seen these Terra-cotta Warriors." Shirac predicted that the life-size warriors would become a major tourist attraction for visitors from around the world. Indeed, since its excavation in 1974, millions of foreign visitors have toured the Terra-cotta Warriors Museum in Xi'an and marveled at the underground wonders. The museum covers an area of 14,000 square meters and contains 6,000 life-size terra-cotta warriors and horses. The impressive sight of the figurines lined in neat formation grips the spectators with grandeur and magnificence and capture their admiration. The 2,200 year-old wonder was part of the Tomb of Qinshihuang, the first emperor of China. It is located in suburb of Xi'an and was discovered when local farmers were digging a well nearby. Three exhibition halls house the continuing excavation of an army of 7,000 terra-cotta soldiers and horses that guard the tomb of Qinshihuang.
