There's a terracotta army in Xuzhou, dating back 2100 years, and put there to guard Liu Wu, third prince of Chu State in the early Western Han Dynasty. This was a nice little touristic bonus for me, with this likely being my one and only visit to the city. (Never say never - F)
Not as well known, or quite as spectacular as the larger, life-size, army in Xi'an, they are nonetheless quite a sight. They're just a short city bus ride away from the city centre, and as well as inspecting the clay soldiers you can go deep down into the tomb of the emperor.
You certainly get a taste for what happens under systems (like unbridled capitalism?) that enable all of the world's wealth eventually to be accumulated by one family. This sort of thing is probably all that's left to spend it on!
