Xi'an - Mausoleum of Emperor Qin Shi Huang

Mausoleum of Emperor Qin Shi Huang

Bigger than the grand pyramids, the Mausoleum of Emperor Qin Shi Huang in Xian province is clearly visible for a couple of miles approaching on the bus.

Qin Shi Huang buried a number of his dignitaries here.
After he had killed and removed all traces of their influence, the new empire took shape under his auspices.

The size of the job is indicated by the size of the mound.
