Terracotta warrior with changing faces removed

A giant model of a terracotta warrior that displayed the faces of passers-by on a street in Xi'an, Shaanxi province, has been relocated after causing controversy. The model appeared in front of the Bell Tower - one of the city's most iconic scenic spots - last week. What intrigued people most was its constantly changing face. According to the local publicity department, the faces were actually those of tourists. A small room located behind the statue was equipped with devices that projected people's features onto the warrior's face.
