Some of the 8,000 life sized Terra Cotta Warriors in Xi'an. Most are 5'10" to 6'6" tall. No two are alike







One of the soldiers gets restored next to several of the horses












After 2,000+ years of solitude the Terracotta Warriors were found in 1974 when the land was attempted to be developed. Restoring the statues will take as long as it took to initially construct them.
