The
breakfast, which after our opinion was very beautiful ( western )
checked the trip to Ming the wall. The wall lies near the hotel, and
there is an impressive building with 4 town gates, one against each
direction, with the earlier described double gate system. On the wall
there are is for each 120 m placed a vague house. The reason for this
is, that that time weapon could only hand 60 m. One could for instance
hold the whole wall guarded. After Ming the wall left the trip to
Terracotta the army, who is a ceramics army consisting of about 8000
soldiers carried out in body size in a large hall based on the place
where this collection is found. The largest one of the halls 60x200 m.

small pieces. After lunch we drove to the part's of the country
