After freshening up at the hotel, we took right off to visit our first site. Sadly, I have no clue what the museum was called, but a regional museum for things local to that providence. Since Xian used to be the capital of China, there were many special treasures from various Dynasties.
I fell in love with these triple glazed horses from the Tang Dynasty. Luckily, I found a reasonably priced replica later, so now I have my very own.
I found it so interesting that the Tang Dynasty had so many camel statues.
The grounds of the museum were very nice.
