Blast from the Past—UNESCO HERITAGE

📍Terracotta Warriors Museum, Xi’an, China Quick history: It was said that the whole set up of the Terracotta Army was buried along with Emperor Qin Shi Huang when he died. People believed that the army will protect the Emperor in his afterlife. The whole set up of the Army was said to be the actual formation of them when they are about to battle or on combat. Seeing their formation and positing during the battle gave a lot of ideas to the researchers about the combat strategies they had in the past. #scenicspotguide#unforgettableexperiences#historicculture#bestislandtraveltowns#nationalpark#urbanexplorer
