Opening and closing dates are still to be decided however this massive exhibit is planned to make stops across Canada in Toronto, Montreal, Calgary and Victoria throughout 2010, 2011 and the early part of 2012. The show is scheduled to open in Toronto at the Royal Ontario Museum, which is also the organizing body for the event in Canada, for June 26 of this year.
The exhibition will cover more than just the army of stone warriors found in Chin’s tomb but will also encompass the emperor’s life and historical impact pre and post death. Available for viewing will also be a second set of figures and a collection of precious gems discovered at a later late but assumed to be from the same time period.

Amazing that each warrior is unique to each individual they represented in life, as well as in the afterlife.
