This is one of the few warriors that was not damaged. We loved this exhibit and I hope you love the few photos I'm sharing.

These warriors are spectacular! Does this mass of people remind you a little of the Beijing Olympics?

 

I hope you know that you're supposed to click on these images to enlarge them!

 

 

 

 

 

We could have spent days at this incredible exhibit. It's really a small miracle that these figures were found at this time in history when they could be preserved.

 

 

 

 

 

This archer is another figure that was found intact. Beautiful, don't you think?

 

I'm sure you've noticed that all the faces are different.

 

 

 

These figures are in the process of being restored. I was very happy to see what a beautiful job the archeologists are doing to restore these warriors. It's quite impressive - especially considering that most all of the figures were severely damaged.

 

More beautiful figures!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just added these last few in case you're like I am and can't get enough of these fabulous figures.
