An incalculable disaster caused a tourist with psychological problems in the China clay army, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The army of terracotta (or clay army), at least 2,000 years old, is located in the mausoleum of the first Chinese Emperor Chin Shi Huang, east of the city of Hsian.
A 30 -year -old man climbed over the railings and entered one of the pits where the clay figures exist and began to break the statues of warriors.
Immediately the safety of the site and the man – who proved mentally disturbed – was arrested.
Chin Si Huang himself proclaimed emperor in 221 BC. While the construction of his mausoleum, for which 700,000 people worked, began in 246 BC, when Emperor Chin Si Huang was 13 years old.
The four pits with the clay army are about seven meters deep and are about one and a half kilometers east of the emperor’s mausoleum.
True soldiers should have been used as models as models, as Kin Si Huang had demanded any of the troops’ faces not to look like another.
In total, the clay soldiers are about 8,000. There are also 130 clay tanks with 520 horses and 150 horses of cavalry.
