Terracotta Warriors

This 8th wonder of the world didn’t disappoint. We had a private guide who gave us lots of knowledge on the detail and excavation of the warriors. A good 3+ hours can be spent here after a 1 hour drive from the city. #historicculture#museumquest#summervacation#urbanexplorer

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

This is the third major archaeological discovery after the Western Han Dynasty painted terracotta warriors and horses in Xianyang Yangjiawan and Xi'an Linyi Qin Dynasty. The museum was built on the site. Now it is the pit No. 1 that can be cleaned and repaired. You can see that these small terracotta warriors and horses have different shapes. Among them, there are armor, royal handcuffs, long-armed scorpions, bows and handcuffs, and hairpins. Hey, as well as reloading cavalry, etc., provided conditions for the full display of the Han Dynasty military. The Chu Tombs and the Guishan Han Tombs are the same as the cave tombs. According to research, although the Chu King seal was not found, it can be basically determined to be the third king of the Western Han Dynasty, the king of the Chu State, who died in the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms. His granddaughter is Married to Wusun's sorrowful princess. The Jinling jade clothing was unearthed in the tomb of the king, and the lacquer enamel of the Xinjiang Marinus jade, as well as the funerary objects such as Yulongpei, and countless treasures, are now hidden in the Xuzhou Museum.
