After three years of careful maintenance and repair, a set of bronze chariots and horses was recently put on display at the Qinshihuang Mausoleum Museum in Xi'an, Shaanxi province.

Two sets of bronze chariots and horses were discovered at Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum in 1978. Their high-skilled craftsmanship earned them the nickname "king of bronze" in academic circles.

In May 2021, the museum made the No 2 set available for public viewing and began maintenance on the No 1 set.
