Amazing Forbidden City!

An unexpected surprise included strolling through the Olympic complex. The indoor track and field building behind, the Bubble where Michael Phelps won gooooold is bottom left.

We made it to the third guard tower on the 2,000 plus year old Great Wall. It was breathtaking, literally!

A farmer digging for a well in Xian in 1978 stumbled across one of the Emperor Qin's tombs with thousands of terracotta warriors. Within a few days the bright colors oxidized. Only two were intact the rest have been painstakingly glued together from thousands of pieces.
