On Saturday, February 27, 2010, we went to the National Geographic Society in Washington, D.C. to see the Terra Cotta Soldiers from Xi'an. Thousands of these soldiers were found as part of the burial complex of Emperor Quin -- the man who unified China, started the Great Wall, regularized money, weights and writing, and then spent the last years of his life preparing, as the ancient Egyptians did, for the after-life. These pictures show what they look like in China, and what we looked like in DC.
