  6. Terre Cotta Warrior and Horses, Xian In March 1974, when digging wells, some peasants made a sensational discovery - the now famous Terra cotta Warriors, distributed over 3 large underground platforms. With more than 8000 life-sized figures, the tomb took 39 years and 700,000 workers to reach completion. Since they have been uncovered the figures, standing 5m down, have been at risk from the weather; a giant hall has been constructed over the first excavation site to provide protection.
