One the things I have always wanted to see has come to Singapore. For years I have wanted to see the terra-cotta warriors, one time when in Hong Kong Coleman and I nearly did but there was some exhibition which had caused all hotels in Beijing to be full. Shame! One day though I will get there to see The Wall and The Terra-cotta Warriors, in the flesh so to speak. But the Asian Civilizations museum has a “special” event running at the moment with the following in town. Just incredible to see these up front and close, thousands of years old and so so life like, each having a unique face, armor etc. I am off to Shanghai in August so fingers crossed my lovely client asks me to go to Beijing too so I can go and see the colleagues of these guys!
Asian Civilizations Museum does it again
Excuse my “creativity” here for the moody shots, Mr Totton would be proud of me, ha ha!!!
Not all terra-cotta warriors but some of the other exhibits in the museum, which are also just as impressive and amazing – they cover all the “zones” of Asia, as you’ll see from the different styles, from Thai, to Chinese, to Indonesian, to Malay – just beautiful.
Also the final few photos are us afterwards eating at IndoChine (those that have been here will know where that is – opposite Boat Quay), but I wanted to include these because look at Amy and chopsticks, way to go Amy – Mummy would be SO proud of you!!!!
