The Shaanxi Terracotta Warriors are a group of terracotta warriors of the Qin Shi Huang's imperial guards that have been buried underground for 2,000 years. For many foreigners, this shocks and arouses as much curiosity as the Egyptian pyramids. The Terracotta Warriors are a golden business card of China's ancient glorious civilization. They were listed on the World Heritage List in 1987 and are known as the "Eighth Wonder of the World."
According to statistics, since the Terracotta Warriors were opened to the public, more than 200 foreign heads of state and government have visited them, some more than once. Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has visited the Terracotta Warriors five times, which shows his obsession with and love for them.
