Asian Civilisations Museum (ACM) - Terracotta Warriors: The First Emperor and His Legacy











24 Jun 2011 - 16 Oct 2011
@ Special Exhibitions Gallery, ACM Empress Place

One of ACM newest special galleries is The Terracotta Warriors: The First Emperor and His Legacy.

My family and I went to ACM on a Sunday afternoon and most of the crowd to ACM was found at the special gallery for the Terracotta Warriors. Surprising, there was groups of kindergarten kids running around. It turns out that schools have been organising school trips to the ACM for little school children.

Actually the special gallery is only a small part of the exhibitions that ACM has. It has an extensive collection on artifacts on the civilizations of China, Southeast Asia, South Asia and West Asia/ Islamic.

For those who are interested in taking photos in ACM, you will be reminded constantly by the security guards that no flash are allowed for photo-taking. This will posed some problem as the permanent galleries are quite dimly lighted.
