Hannah in China
XI'AN, Shaanxi Province:
Today we went to see the Terracotta Army. Got a bus from the station - about an hour's trip, but it went fairly quickly.
It was absolutely AMAZING! Pit One was full of all soldiers that had been restored and were all stood up in order. Pit Three was a lot smaller and had a few horses - you could see some of the wheels from what would have been chariots.
Pit Two was my favourite though, even though none of the soldiers were restored, the pit was just how they were found - all the soldiers broken up and buried in the dust. But it was mind-blowing thinking that all these life-size soldiers had been built and buried so long ago!
After a Macdonalds dinner we got on the train back to Beijing.
