The Terracotta Army of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor | Are you sure you don't want to take a look?

The Terracotta Army of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor Former French Prime Minister Jacques Chirac once said: "The world had seven wonders, but with the discovery of the Terracotta Army, we can now speak of eight wonders. One cannot claim to have visited Egypt without seeing the pyramids, nor can one claim to have visited China without seeing the Terracotta Army. The Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, as one of the largest, most uniquely structured, and richest in content of the imperial tombs in the world, has a majestic presence that has shocked the entire world. 💕Highlights: 1⃣ Known as the 'Eighth Wonder of the World,' the Terracotta Army of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor was inscribed on the 'World Heritage List' by UNESCO in 1987 and has been rated as a national 5A tourist attraction. 2⃣ It is a large burial pit in the mausoleum complex of the First Qin Emperor, based on the Terracotta Warriors, and is the largest ancient military museum in China built on the original site. 3⃣ There are three pits of Terracotta Warriors. Pit one is the main force array of chariots and infantry, with about 6,000 life-sized terracotta figures. Pit two is composed of chariots, cavalry, and commanding officers. Pit three is the command system of the army. 4⃣ The most breathtaking is pit one! Pit one is the largest in scale, rectangular in shape, and is the main force array of chariots and infantry. 5⃣ The Terracotta Army of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor is a precious treasure of world human culture, comparable to the Egyptian pyramids and ancient Greek sculptures, and its discovery itself is also one of the most spectacular archaeological achievements in China in the twentieth century. ⛩Address: 1.5 kilometers east of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor on Qinling North Road, Lintong District, Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province ⏰Opening hours: 08:30-18:00; Ticket sales stop at 17:00 (March 16 - November 15, Monday - Sunday) 08:30-17:30; Ticket sales stop at 16:30 (November 16 - the following year March 15) 💰Ticket price Standard ticket: 120 RMB (January 1 - December 31, Monday - Sunday) 📝Explanation: What is purchased includes an in-museum explanation For the Terracotta Army, we searched 'Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor Terracotta Army Explanation Introduction' on a certain site ‼At the entrance of the Terracotta Army, there are many 'bare-pole commanders' guides, be careful to discern ⚠️⚠️⚠️ 🚶After visiting the Terracotta Army, there is a long commercial street to walk through, taking about 15 minutes, and at the end is the statue of the First Qin Emperor 🗿.
