The ancient structure built as a tomb for Qin Shi Huang is the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, located near Xi'an in China. Constructed around 210-209 BC, this elaborate burial complex is best known for its Terracotta Army, consisting of thousands of life-sized clay soldiers, horses, and chariots meant to accompany the emperor in the afterlife. The mausoleum itself remains largely unexcavated, shrouded in mystery, but it symbolizes the emperor's ambition and the unification of China under the Qin Dynasty. The Terracotta Army reflects advanced craftsmanship, and the site is considered one of the greatest archaeological finds in history.
