Pit No. 2 of Terracotta Warriors and Horses

introduce

Pit No. 2 of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses is located on the northeast side of Pit No. 1 and on the east side of Pit No. 3. It is in the shape of a curved ruler as a whole, with a total area of about 6,000 square meters. There are more than 1,300 pottery figurines, more than 80 chariots, and tens of thousands of bronze weapons. Although the buildings in the pit are the same as those in Pit No. 1, the structure is more complicated. There are four mixed square formations of step, step and ride, and the four small formations form a curved formation. Kneeling and shooting figurines, standing figurines, and equestrian figurines are all available, and the painted colors are well preserved. Therefore, Pit No. 2 can be described as the essence of Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses. Pit No. 2 has an exhibition hall of 17,000 square meters, which is currently the largest and most comprehensive modern site exhibition hall in China.
