Each statue has a different face, leading researchers to believe that each one is a copy of a real soldier. The statues fill only one part of the emperor's huge tomb, which still has not been completely unearthed. More than 700,000 people worked for nearly 40 years to build this tomb. However, no one in modern times knew about the tomb or the terracotta statues until 1974, when some farmers discovered the tomb while they were digging a well!

I love my new school and classmates. Over the October holiday, my parents and I are planning to go to Xi'an to see the Terracotta Army. I've heard that it is an amazing sight, and I can't wait to go. To me, the story of the Terracotta Army is almost unbelievable. It's amazing that there are more than 8,000 statues, and no one in modern times knew about them until the 1970s. We're also planning to visit several other places in Xi'an. My dad and I are both looking forward to going to the Shanxi History Museum, because my dad loves history and I have heard that this museum is known as a “Chinese treasure house”! We're also going to the Xi'an City Wall and a few other famous sights. We're taking the train, leaving the day before the October holiday begins. We're arriving at 9: 30 a.m. and will start sightseeing right away, so I hope we sleep well on the train! I guess that's all for now! I'll write again soon and send photos! Do you have any plans for the coming holiday Hope to hear from you soon. Your friend, Richard Other plans Final thoughts Transport Main pu ... ...
