A journey to the heart of the Middle Kingdom.

The exhibition called The Terracotta Army – the heritage of the eternal Chinese emperor, told of the discovery in 1974, of the burial site and terracotta army of the first Emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang, a major archaeological event brilliantly illustrated by this exhibition presented for the first time in Belgium.

A treasure to discover.

This amazing historical fresco spreading out over more than 1,200 m² included no less than 250 life size elements. They were veritable gems that did not fail to captivate visitors with their elegance. An immersive audio-guide took visitors through this long-gone era that witnessed the birth of the first Chinese Emperor.
