Introduction to the Golden Man Square: There are twelve golden men standing in front of Jiuyuan County. These twelve golden men are composed of three types of figures, including civil servants, military generals and musicians. After Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, in order to eliminate war and consolidate the Qin regime, he ordered the collection of weapons from all over the world, gathered them in Xianyang, and sold them as twelve golden figures, each weighing a thousand stones. The soldiers of the Qin Dynasty mostly used copper weapons, and copper was yellow in color, so the objects they cast were also called "golden men".
