Dear Tom,
Here we are back in Lisbon some weeks after returning from our fantastic China tour.
I'm writing to let you know we had a great time there, in a very well organized tour arranged by you, from an initial sketch made by us.
In Xi’an we knew that Terracotta Warriors, the incredible 2000 year-old army of life-sized warriors, each one unique, was part of the underground tomb of the Emperor Qin. Well over 7000 figures were drawn up in full battle array in several large pits, many of the figures, including soldiers, archers, horses and chariots, have been restored, and the repairs and excavations continue at the site. There was also an excellent museum, including bronze chariots unearthed nearby, and a film about the history and discovery of the tomb, so we got so much from the tour.
This tour was our great time in China, we have been recommending to all our friends in Portugal.
Thanks for everything,
Sergio and Silvina
