Pour yourself a cup of curiosity.

Join us for Oo-long Conversations — a relaxed series of chats held after your visit to our newest exhibition Terracotta Warriors: Legacy of the First Emperor.

After exploring the exhibition, settle in with a cup of tea or coffee and share your reflections. Chat about the cultural objects unearthed in the ancient mausoleum, or explore ideas surrounding immortality, the afterlife and the enduring mystery of Qin Shihuang’s tomb. 

Led by one of our friendly guides, each session offers a space to reflect, ask questions, and explore the themes of the exhibition in good company. Occasionally, a special guest will lead the conversation (see schedule below).

Your ticket includes entry to the exhibition and a tea or coffee.
