Trip to Xi’an

(1) Viewing the Terracotta Warriors

“If you don’t see the pyramids, you haven’t come to Egypt; if you don’t see the Statue of Liberty, you haven’t come. America; if you don’t see the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, you haven’t come to China!”

——Inscription

The National Day Golden Week is here again, and everyone is preparing for travel. Of course, I am no exception. During this holiday, from September 30th to October 2nd, I also "traveled" to Xi'an, one of the ancient capitals of China.

Xi'an was called "Fenghao" in the Western Zhou Dynasty. "Fenghao" is the collective name of Fengjing and Haojing built by King Wen of Zhou and King Wu of Zhou respectively. In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang established his capital in Guanzhong and named it "Chang'an" after the local Chang'an township, which means "long-lasting peace and stability." It was once the capital of the Western Zhou, Qin, Western Han, Former Zhao, Former Qin, Later Qin, Western Wei, Northern Zhou, Sui, and Tang dynasties. It has a long history and profound cultural heritage.

When you think of Xi'an, what you may immediately think of is the Terracotta Warriors and Horses. That's right, when people come to Xi'an, the first thing they should visit is the Terracotta Warriors and Horses. It is large in scale and of high artistic value. It is known as the "Eighth Wonder of the World" and is one of the treasures of our Chinese nation. Its reputation has long been well-known at home and abroad. I have admired it for a long time, but I have never been able to make the trip. Today I can finally see it.

"Wow!" I couldn't help but exclaimed when I arrived at the gate of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum. It turned out that there was already a long queue of people buying tickets in front of the museum. People were rushing to buy tickets, all wanting to see the terracotta warriors and horses.

After finally "breaking through" the crowd, we finally got the tickets and entered the exhibition hall of the Terracotta Warriors Underground Museum in order. The exhibition hall is brightly lit and the scene is spectacular. The first thing that caught our eyes were two bronze carriages with different shapes, both pulled by four horses. The shapes of the horses were also made to be lifelike and the same as real horses. Looking at them, I felt the horse's passion, its boldness, its endless energy, and its eager desire to gallop. The two carriages not only have a luxurious appearance, but also have similar internal structures. It is said that these two carriages were used by Qin Shihuang when he traveled south.

Then, we came to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Pit No. 1. Pit No. 1 is the largest of the three pits and is also the main body of the three pits. Because there was no good protection when they were unearthed, most of the Qin warriors were oxidized and destroyed. In addition, Xiang Yu burned and took away the weapons in the hands of the Qin warriors, making it impossible for people to see the original appearance of these terracotta warriors and horses. These terracotta warriors and horses are divided into two parts. There are defensive troops on both sides, and the main offensive troops are in the middle. They have different expressions, some are smiling, as if they are happy about the battle they have won; some are sad, as if they are afraid of not seeing their relatives again; some are serious, as if they are ready for battle...

Standing in front of Pit No. 1, people feel a strong shock. There is an unparalleled underground military formation in the world: at the front is the forward, 210 warrior figurines, arranged in three lines, holding bows. The slaves carried quivers on their backs; closely followed were armored infantry, mixed with horses and chariots, forming forty columns pouring out of more than a dozen tunnels; the army had flanks on the left and right, and three columns of rearguards at the end. The entire military formation is tightly laid out and looks like it is ready to attack. It is reminiscent of the glory of the First Emperor when he swept across the world and conquered all directions.

Then, we visited Pit No. 2 and Pit No. 3. In these two pits, there are swords that have remained sharp for thousands of years, and bronze horses made of bronze but very much like the real ones... these They are all the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people of ancient my country.

After visiting the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, I felt like I had returned to the Warring States Period, and I seemed to have seen the spectacular scene of King Qin Yingzheng giving an order, the Qin army unified China, and "King Qin swept Liuhe": on the ancient battlefield with the roar of war drums , the sound of fighting and shouting resounded throughout the world, and they are still lingering among the Terracotta Warriors and Horses...
