This well-known collection of thousands of life-sized soldiers and horses found in Xi'an, China, was originally constructed in the 3rd century BC. The Terracotta Warriors, also known as the Terracotta Army, are truly impressive and stand guard near the tomb of Qin Shi Huangdi. While many of these soldiers still remain unexcavated, there are currently 600 underground pits full of cleared soldiers. The soldiers are hand-carved, and with their incredible detail, it is estimated that they took 40 years of craftsmanship.

Location: Xi'an, China
