According to old records, Emperor Qin Shi Huang ordered 700,000 workers to build his tomb after he determined the best place to be buried. Following his death 36 years later, the emperor was laid to rest in the grand underground tomb. It is reported to have taken 36 years to construct the tomb, and workers and supervisors involved in the project were buried alive within it.
