A New Zealand child poses for a photo with a picture of a Chinese dragon she colored at the Te Papa museum in Wellington on Jan 23, 2019. She was among those participating in a family day activity, Coloring Chinese Dragons and Terracotta Warriors, during the museum's exhibition, Terracotta Warriors: Guardians of Immortality. Nearly 100 children were invited to use their imaginations to color in sketches of Chinese dragons and warriors, and make them into simple crafts. Lan Yongsen, a Chinese artist from the China Cultural Center in New Zealand, was invited to teach them about the culture and stories behind the drawings. [Photo/Chinaculture.org]

The museum is hosting the exhibition, Terracotta Warriors: Guardians of Immortality, through April 22, offering a rare opportunity for locals to have an intimate and immersive encounter with some of the ancient terracotta warriors made during the Qin Dynasty (221 - 206 BC). For more than 2,000 years, the warriors have guarded the tomb of Qin Shihuang, China's first emperor. [Photo/Chinaculture.org]
