Close Friend of mine Visited China last week: Thought i would share some Photos of the Infamous Terra-Cotta Warriors

Posted

Ive always wanted to visit China. Your freind is fortunate. The terracotta warriors are fascinating. This tomb rivals anyplace I know of for classic human decadence at the cost of many lives. IIRC, the section where the warriors are is only a small part of what may be an entire royal "village" still buried, kinda like Pompeii. I understand that this king was also very paranoid. I'd have to dig out a few books to research this a little more to give any greater details. I used to be know a little more but memory fails me. All in all, an incredible project.
