Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum, Archaeological museum in Lintong District, China
The museum complex houses over 8,000 terracotta warriors, 130 chariots, and 670 horses arranged in battle formations across three excavation pits.
Local farmers discovered the underground army in 1974 while digging a well, leading to extensive archaeological excavations that continue to this day.
Each terracotta figure displays distinct facial features and armor details, reflecting the military structure and artistic methods of the Qin Dynasty.
The museum provides guided tours in multiple languages and features indoor temperature control systems to preserve the ancient artifacts.
The main burial chamber of Emperor Qin remains sealed, with scientists detecting high levels of mercury within the underground palace complex.
