The Terracotta Warriors Museum in nearby Dorchester is currently home to some magnificent treasures from China's rich and varied history.

Qin Shi Huang di was famous for building the country's Great Wall, as well as conquering and uniting this warring and divided nation to become its first emperor.

Another contribution he made to Chinese history was his creation of a terracotta army and history fans can see some of these intriguing figures, which have been specially replicated by museum and conservation technicians in China, skilled craftsmen and specialists of world heritage.

For history lovers enjoying a relaxing few days away from it all, the exhibition is the perfect way to fill an afternoon.
