At the culmination of their trip through the Johnson & Johnson Olympic Pavilion, visitors have the rare opportunity to witness firsthand the Qin Shi Huang Terracotta Warriors, one of the most significant archaeological finds of the 20th century and a truly unique collection of artifacts from a remarkable chapter in China's history.

An introductory film transports visitors back 22 centuries to the time of China's first Emperor, Qin Shi Huang, who over the course of his lifetime filled his mausoleum with more than 8,000 life-size clay warriors and horses dressed for battle. Upon the Emperor's death in 210 BC, these Terracotta Warriors stood guard over his tomb until their discovery by a group of farmers in 1974. Following the film, the display space opens to reveal several authentic Terracotta Warrior statues. The Warriors were shipped to the Pavilion from the China Qin Shi Huang Terracotta Army Museum in the city of Xi'an, Shanxi, one of the most visited attractions in China.
