A newly built museum designed to exhibit the bronze chariots and horses excavated from the emperor's mausoleum will open to the public in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, on May 18. The artifacts had been moved there by Wednesday.

The new museum is just 240 meters from the chariot excavation site. Two sets of chariots and horses were unearthed in December 1980 by an archaeological team from the Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum.
