Meeting with...

Today some pictures of a stunning place located 40 km from Xian. This is the Terracotta Army built at the time of the first emperor of China (200 BC). We were not disappointed with what we saw! It's really beautiful and impressive. The conservation status of thousands of statues is amazing. These soldiers and horses are very beautiful. Their design is perfect.

  9. I have seen the terracotta army on tv several times. It looks very impressive. It must have been special seeing it for real.

    Happy new week!

    1. Same for me, I had seen shows on TV about this army. But I didn't see it so great.
