Xie Feng from the Chinese Embassy in Washington says the opening coincides with US president Barrack Obama's visit to China. The ancient soldiers' visit in US is another good symbol of Sino-US relationships.

Xie Feng, Charge D'affaires of Chinese Embassy, Washington, D.C., said, "The exhibition opens in an auspicious atmosphere. That it is being held in Washington predicts more cultural exchanges to come between the two countries. It indicates a development of the people's friendship, and a development of Sino-US relationships."

The guardians of China's first emperor have been exhibited in the states of California, Georgia, and Texas before coming to the US capital.
