Features: Qin Shi Huang is the first emperor in Chinese history, and the Terracotta Army is his mausoleum. According to archaeological findings, the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum once had a grand above-ground complex and a richly stocked underground palace. During the late Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu set the above-ground structures on fire, reducing them to ashes; the underground palace remained intact, still lying silent 30 meters underground to this day. This book introduces readers to the magnificent architecture of the mausoleum, the numerous (burial pits), and the luxurious underground palace. Additionally, the author explores the artifacts of the Qin Mausoleum and the unsolved mysteries of the mausoleum.
