About Xian

Xi'an, hovedstad under mange kinesiske dynastier og Silkevejens udgangspunkt, har Terrakottahæren og intakte bymure fra Ming-tiden.

Terrakottahæren, fundet af bønder, der gravede en brønd i 1974, står i enorme gruber uden for byen: tusindvis af lerkrigere, heste og vogne i naturlig størrelse, begravet for at bevogte graven efter Qin Shi Huang, Kinas første kejser. Hver figur har sit eget ansigt, og skalaen er forbløffende.

Top-ranked sights in Xian: Emperor Qinshihuang’s Mausoleum Site Museum (Terracotta Warriors), Xi'an City Wall (Chengqiang), Big Wild Goose Pagoda (Dayanta).
