A troop dressed as Terracotta Warriors marches at the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai, as Shaanxi Week opens on Monday, Sept 8, 2010. They represent only a small portion of the 8,000 terracotta soldiers buried in front of China's first emperor Qinshihuang's tomb to gurard him in the afterlife. Dating from 210 BC, they were discovered in 1974 in the eastern suburbs of Xi'an, capital of Northwest China's Shaanxi province. [Photo/Xinhua] |
