Tomb with Terracotta Warriors

From Xi’an, China one of the amazing sights is the tomb of the first Qin Emperor (from the third century BC). The vast site is a masterpiece of terracotta, with life size statues of horses and warriors crafted in clay. This sculpture of horses and a chariot in the museum indicates the elaborate bronze art also found in the area. The site’s significance to world art is emphasized by its designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
