Qin Shi Huang's Tomb

Qin Shi Huang's Tomb

Emporer Qin Shi Hueng is looked at as the most respected and honored leader in China. An incredible underground city, surrounded by mercury, is hiddden beneath the depths in the Lintong District in China. Upon his passing, a tomb was created with a pyramid structure 76 meters below. Much of the incredible city has been discovered, including the famous terra cotta warriors that were revealed in 1974. The tomb is suspected to emerge eventually, however, excavation is daunting and dangerous. Teams must avoid releasing the dangerous mercury into the underground streams, carefully plumbed around the structure.
