The Lamborghini Museum in Sant'Agata Bolognese is an extension of their factory housing a number of company owned vehicles.

 

Fierce rivals with Ferrari, Lamborghini have a similarly proud and rich history with many of their designs still head turners today.

 

Miura in my garage, anytime!

DCIM\100GOPRO\GOPR2762.

This is our over the water bungalow. It is the next to last one on the center walkway. Our bellman asked us how we got this unit. He said it is very hard to get. We told him it was just part of our good luck because we had won this trip to Tahiti. Thank you Hilton, for this wonderful gift, your warm hospitality, and 5-star accommodations.

Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum - Terracotta Army

- The Terracotta Army, discovered in 1974, dates back to the late 200s BCE and is estimated to contain over 8,000 life-sized terracotta soldiers, along with horses and chariots, buried near Emperor Qinshihuang's mausoleum. Discovery:

The Terracotta Army was discovered in 1974 by local farmers in Lintong County, near Xi'an, China.

Time Period:

The figures date back to the late 200s BCE, during the Qin Dynasty.

Estimated Number:

Estimates suggest that the three pits containing the Terracotta Army hold more than 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses, and 150 cavalry horses.

Location:

The Terracotta Army is located near the mausoleum of Emperor Qinshihuang, which is situated at the northern foot of Lishan Mountain, 35 kilometers northeast of Xi'an, Shaanxi Province.

Construction:

The mausoleum was constructed over 38 years from 246 to 208 BC.

Significance:

The Terracotta Army is a world-renowned discovery and a significant part of the mausoleum complex, which is considered the largest imperial tomb in China.

Ongoing Excavations:

Excavations continue, and experts believe that thousands more life-size figures could still be buried.

Museum:

The Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum was established to preserve and showcase the site and its artifacts, including the Terracotta Army.

Each individual statue is a direct sculpture of each individual member of the army and each is individually stamped with the name! Sadly the slave master artists who made them were killed and buried in mass graves only named as slave.
