Terracotta Army Exhibit
The Terracotta Army Exhibit is a legacy of the First Emperor of China. This exhibit was on loan. Terracotta Army traces 500 years of Qin history to bring you face to face with one of the greatest archaeological finds. The First Emperor’s legacy has more than 130 ancient Chinese works from across the Shaanxi Province. Our first viewing of the Terracotta Army was in the China Pavillion at the Knoxville Worlds Fair. It is a wonderful site to behold.
