Ming Tombs




Today we saw the Ming tombs guarded by the Sacred Way of the Animals. It was surreal to be in an emporer's tomb 9 flights of stairs underground. The tomb was excavated in the late 1950's and is the only one of 13 Emporer's tombs that has been located.

Jayme!!! I'm so jealous of you! We talked about cloisonne in art history. I can't believe you actually got to see it for real, that's so awesome.

You are totally MY hero, sister. :)
