The Terracotta Army, also called the Terra Cotta Warriors and Horses, is a collection of terracotta sculptures depicting the armies of Qin Shi Huangdi (the first emperor of China – 260-210 B.C.).

The museum consists of three huge pits, as well as the hall of the two bronze chariots and horses. Covering an area of 22,780 square meters, more than 8,000 terra cotta soldiers and horses, as well as more than 10,000 bronze weapons, were discovered across the three different pits. The museum is a treasure trove of the Qin Dynasty's military, science and technology, art and culture. It has been listed as an UNESCO World Heritage Site. (Source: China.org.cn/Han Bo)
