The Terra Cotta Army In Full Force
philippajane86 27 contributions United Kingdom Jun 21, 2011
Had a bit of a wait outside, but with the Terra Cotta Army inside it was to be expected, the staff were helpful and told us, in French and English, about current promotions, even letting us know that under 25s and over 65s get discounts. The display was brilliant, in French and English, and whilst a little busy we were able to navigate our way around the exhibition easily.
The souvenir shop was a little disorganised, but with just days to go on the exhibition they were probably just trying to get rid of the last bits and bobs.This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.

We've had a heatwave follow us since New York …
