Visiting the Getty and seeing the gallery exhibit was very impressive. Walking through and seeing all the artwork on the silk, paper scrolls and the statues they created was visually interesting to see. Even though it was hard to hear the presenter due to the amount of people that day, still very informative. As a visual art teacher, I love taking students to museums because it helps students make connections and reinforces what I teach.

The most impressive aspect of the tour was when we entered into the replica caves. The amount of artwork on the walls and statues made me feel as if I traveled to China’s silk road. A great resource when teaching Buddha religion and iconography.
