    The ancient capital of Xi'an in China lies a series of pyramid mounds virtually unknown outside the country. A legend pyramid of such size and grandeur as to put all the other pyramids of the world to shame. It is called legend of the white pyramid of China. A century ago, to build the pyramid was a mega challenge. To satisfies the emperors, engineer had to move million a tan of earth. They dig the hole in very deep and cover them with man-made mountain. The year in 246 before Christ (BC), China does not exist instead there are 7 small kingdom were fight each other for premiership. The great kingdom, Qin unified 7 kingdom which are Han, Yan, Chu, Wei, Qi, Zhou and Shu into a single emperor called Qin (China) to support a large military. By 221 (BC) the most powerful man in the world who are Qin Shi Huang Di build the most biggest of pyramid and monument to project his limits of power. The greatest underground kingdom and palace the Qin Shi Huang’s tombs, archaeologist discovered the most tomb complex of Emperor Qin Shi Huang Di which estimated 8,000 lifelike clay soldiers, as well as mass graves and evidence of a brutal power grab outside the city and find the complete orchestra. The Qin Shi Huang’s tombs is also thought to be encircled with the rivers of liquid mercury, which ancient Chinese believed could bestow immortality.
    Qin Shi Huang is the same emperor who build the Great Wall of China, was build 2.2 kilometers long, encloses another 1.3 kilometers long.The Great Wall was build by the largely of soldiers and convicts. Many people died during the wall’s construction; many were buried within the wall itself. The wall only made by dirt and was added by binding material which is sticky rice and some waters. And lastly it will turn into mud with no air pocket to gives it strong in structure.

    In Shaanxi location, there is mysterious pyramid that belive was build by the first emperor of China that is Shih Huang Ti that succesfull to crush all his 6 rival to form one dynasty under his command, the dynasty named from his tribe that is Qin or called in English as China, it is Chinese tradition where the king must be places at the very top of the mount, so they need to build man made mount that required many slaves to build it, during that time many slaves was die young, until now the skeleton's slaves still exist and being investigate that the skeleton die when he is 30 years old,it is show how suffered the slaves to completed the emperor command, the castle believes built by soil, so it must not content any air sup or air hole to make it strength, we can see it until now the mount castle still exist, it is shows how the slaves work hard to done it, having said that the mysterious pyramid should be four times bigger than the biggest pyramid of egypt in size but as we can see it now it is not so big maybe it is never be finish. Besides, there is underground castle that exist before the first emperor of China establish, in the underground palaces there is one old coffin content mummy that has comparable quality with the Egypt's mummy, having said that the burial used an ancient burial Chinese style, only after Shih Huang Ti die, the Han dynasty is establish where the man made mount is continue but in more slowly, only after the Tang dynasty establish, the slaves was stop slowly and being said that the Tang dynasty is the most develop country in the world at that time.

    The term Chinese pyramids refers to pyramidal shaped structures in China, most of which are ancient mausoleums and burial mounds built to house the remains of several early emperors of China and their imperial relatives. Centuries ago building these tombs was a mega challenge. To satisfy their Emperor’s engineers had to move millions of tons of earth dig huge hold dozens of meters deep and cover them with man-made mountains. A research carry out in New Zealand said that successful building with dirt depend on two point: add binding material to the earth so it won’t crack, fall apart and keep the water out because water will find its ways into any air pockets inside an earthen wall and it will turn the earth to mud or freeze and expand and the wall will collapse. This is why the tomb of an ancient Chinese still stay strong and stable. Ancient records that first Empress tunes were finished and it was 115 meters high, twice as tall as it is today. At that height its base would have been 500 meters on each side making the tomb five times bigger than it is today and four times bigger than Egypt’s Great Pyramid. It is looking much smaller today is due to the two thousand years of wind and rain have eroded the tombs and Norma’s dirt mound. Another theory believe that the tombs was never finished. Shinjo embalmers buried her in a tomb 20 meters deep, her body wrapped tightly and 20 layers of silk. Then sealed it into for nested coffins and sealed with lacquer and surrounded a woman burial chamber with a meter and a half of charcoal and over a meter of dense white clay. All that would have kept air and water away from her corpse proof to some experts the Qin Qiu ice tomb was purpose-built to preserve her body.

    In China, there exists an astonishing place. A burial ground to rival Egypt’s Valley of the Kings, where pyramid tombs of stupendous size are full of astonishing riches. In 221 BC, China's first Emperor united warring kingdoms into a nation that still exists today. To memorialise this achievement, he bankrupted the national treasury and oppressed thousands of workers to build one of the world’s biggest mortuary complexes. China's second dynasty, the Han, inherited the daunting challenge of building larger tombs to command respect and establish their right to rule without running the nation into the ground. Although no Han emperor's tomb has been opened, the tombs of lesser Han aristocrats have revealed astonishing things: complete underground palaces (including kitchens and toilets) and at least one corpse so amazingly well-preserved some believe Han tomb-builders knew how to "engineer immortality". But most tombs were robbed, leaving another dynasty hundreds of years later – the brilliant Tang – to lead a revolution in tomb design, tunnelling simple shaft-tombs into natural mountains and filling them with small, inexpensive grave goods that symbolised more than reproduced the perfect afterlife.
