In September 1969, an ancient Chinese sculpture, the Bronze Galloping Horse, was discovered in the Leitai Tomb of the Eastern Han Dynasty (25-220) in Wuwei County, northwest China’s Gansu Province. The sculpture, also known as the Galloping Horse Treading on a Flying Swallow, is a perfectly balanced masterpiece created roughly 2,000 years ago. This August, Wuwei County holds a series of events in commemoration of this exciting discovery.
