Last week I went to see an exhibition in my country where the chinese terracotta warrions from the Qin Dynasty were shown. It was awesome. I know I will never be able to go to China to see the whole army but I still found incredible what I saw.
Has anyone here seen them? What do you think of them? Share!

I´m sure you don´t have to go too far to see wonderful things. I have seen wonders in museums in the United States. Probably the big cities have exhibitions like the one I saw once in a while. If they brought it to Chile, they must have been in your country.
Take care!

The exhibition I saw at my country was made by just a few of them .But one could imagine how the over 8000 would look together. I hope you can see it in the furture. If you do, do tell us!
Take care!

Nothing is the same in pictures as it is in person. But now, with internet, we can see a lot of awesome things.
Happy New Year!

They brought the exhibition to Chile. There were some clay warriors (the size of a big man) and horses too. The whole lot are about 8000 but some of them are still undug. All of them are different.
