The construction started in 246 BC and lasted until 208 BC, making it one of the largest mausoleums known.
The 76-meter-long structure, which houses the body of Chinese Emperor Qin Shi Huang, was built with the logic of a pyramid.
The mystery of this place lies in the Terra Cotta Army on its borders. A stone soldier, first discovered by a villager in 1920, has unearthed an earthen army of life-size soldiers and horses.
How these sculptures were made with the means of the time and how they could all have such unique details is still a matter of curiosity for those interested in archaeology.
