This once-in-a-lifetime exhibition will explore one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of the 20th century and provide an insight into China’s First Emperor, Qin Shihuangdi, and his legacy. Objects featured in the exhibition will include a number of the world-famous terracotta warriors from Xi'an, China, which were buried alongside the First Emperor in readiness for the afterlife, as well as some of the most striking recent discoveries made on the site. In introducing the idea of a unified state and effectively creating China in 221 BC, the First Emperor of Qin created what is today the oldest surviving political entity in the world. How that state has survived, developed and is viewed today will be explored through events, lectures and debates around the exhibition. Please note: Time slots are every 10 minutes with an approximate viewing time of 1 hour. An audio tour guide is recommended for this exhibition which can be purchased on arrival at the British Museum for £3.50 per person.
The most popular hotels in the west end are all available for selection and once you have chosen the First Emperor theatre tickets and date you would like to go, you will be presented with a list of London hotels to choose from.
Accomodation for the First Emperor theatre break ranges from great value 3 star hotels through to a luxury 5 star hotel break.
