This image was taken in Xi'an, China at the Terra Cotta Museum. The sight of thousands of these soldiers in the 16,000 square meter pit 1 of the museum was truly awesome. Discovered in 1974, the soldiers were created to protect the mausoleum of the first Chinese emperor Qin Shi Huang Di in 210 BC. All are unique.
