terracotta army in Krosno

Short time ago I went to Podkarpackie Museum in Krosno and I spent 2 złoty on the ticket. There's a a copy of chinese teracotta army. Original is very far away, in Lintong district of Xi'an prefecture, Shaanxi province of China - as Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum.

秦始皇(帝) Qin Shi Huang(di) (260-210 BC) - First Emperor of China, but not the first ruler.

"Terracotta Warriors and Horses" or "Teracorra Army"
兵马俑 bīngmǎ yǒng
兵 - soldier
马 - horse
俑 - figurine buried with the dead (i guess...)

Teracotta is a ceramic made of clay. Well... More piece of work than piece of art, but quite impressive anyway.

DCD - ultimate mission

DCD - defy cultural differences
books, comics, music, movies, opera and so on...

Every polish child is familiar with movie "Pierścień i róża" (the rose and the ring).
American kids are amased by a film "Princess Bride".
How about chinese children...?
This is what I call cultural differences, cultural gap. Very important inpact of popculture, local myths, literature and history taught in schools. Other food, other way of thinking. Next level is... a particular rhythm of everyday life.


It's quite terryfying, but until now:
- I have seen only 19 chinese movies (and 222 polish movies(native language...), 181 french movies, and 204 british movies, and 955 american movies...)
- I have read only 2 chinese books: (Quotations From Chairman Mao Tse-Tung & The Diary of Ma Yan: The Struggles and Hopes of a Chinese Schoolgirl)
- few songs
- some manhua (1/2 Prince as one of the longest)

Shame on me...
