captions for the photos below

sorry-forgot to add captions for the pix!

The first and second pix are both taken in the summer palace in Beijing. The colors there were just amazing, and in some parts they had just touched up the paint so it was nice and vivid!

The last pic is of the famous Terracotta Warriors outside of Xi'an. They are still being excavated and they are finding more and more pieces of destroyed warriors, horses and carts. There are 3 different sections that they are still digging in. (they built this museum and shelter even though this is still going on.) There are many more that are still buried, that they think are painted, and they don:t want to uncover them and have the paint fade or flake off, so they are waiting for some new technology to help them preserve them)
