Xuzhou Han Dynasty Terracotta Warriors and Horses

Xuzhou Han Dynasty Terracotta Warriors and Horses - The terracotta warriors and horses excavation site covers 6,000 square meters and includes 4,800 pieces of terracotta warriors and horses interred during the burial of Liu Wu, the third king of the Chu Kingdom during the Western Han dynasty. The sculptures were found in 1984 in six pits, three infantry pits, one pottery-guard pit, one cavalry pit and one chariot pit. But, only two infantry pits and the pottery-guard pit have been fully excavated. The two infantry pits yielded 2,393 figures but they are smaller in size, about a foot tall, than the life-sized Xi’an terracotta warriors and horses from the Qin dynasty. #china #china🇨🇳 #chinatravel #chinalife #chinadestinations #chinaphotography #xuzhou #xuzhouterracottawarriors #ilovemylife #itsgoodtobealive #travel #travelling #viajar #viajarfazbem #viajarépreciso #trip #wanderlust #wanderlusting #enjoythelife #travelgram#terracotta #terracottawarriors #viajarépreciso
