Although its famous cousin in Xi'an gets most of the attention, the Terracotta Warriors of Xuzhou have their own charm.
More than 2000 years ago, the third Chu duke Liu Wu died. Not only was he buried in a decent tomb, but his tomb was also protected by a huge army of terracotta warriors on several sides of his tomb. The figurines were rediscovered in 1984 and have been on display in their original place since 1985. Bending down to the ground, you can take a closer look at the miniatures.
