The Terracotta Army, Xian, China! It is considered one of the most important archaeological discoveries of the 20th century. About 8,000 life-size statues, chariots and 100 horses have been unearthed and it seems that many more are still buried. The details are amazing and it could not fail to be included in the UNESCO World Heritage Site. I visited this site in August 2019

That must be impressive! I saw some of those soldiers that were itinerant and they came here many years ago. Each face of each one is different, true, so well detailed.
Exactly, they are all handmade and each one is different from the other. This is an amazing thing!
It is amazing what Humans that are in power will do to entertain themselves. I see that he had a headless horseman also. This most have been a Adventure that won’t be forgotten.
If you search the web for history, you will be even more amazed at why the emperor created this huge army!
OMG! When I see or visited places like this, I have goosebumps, there were many people died, armies for war...
