Ronald Reagan Presidential Library / Genghis Khan Exhibit / Part one

 

I was surprised to find out this museum was showcasing an exhibit for Genghis Khan. Very scenic location with the meticulously cared for gardens. I enjoyed the interactive kiosks detailing individual people during the Genghis Khan period, when you walk in the ushers hand out different cards for each patron. The short informational movies scattered about provide plenty of places to sit down and watch.

 

Beautiful courtyard provides a great place for bird watching and people watching.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While walking through this exhibit, I immediately became immersed into this time period. Over 200 rare artifacts were on display. Definitely made it hard to pick which ones to photograph!

 

 

 

 

 

Wooden & glass Peking horse. Jade horse Finial. Ching Dynasty 1750 – 1800 AD. These were a few of my favorites. The personalities of each horse came out.

 

 

 

I’d like to have the white spirit banner for peace. :>)

 

Looks as if the Leopard is about to leap!

 

 

 

They had a whole wall full of these paintings. I’m partial to horses.

 

Teb-tengri found out the hard way not to defy Genghis Khan!

 

Such beautiful ceramic work.

 

 

Just imagine how shiny the bronze dragon comb would be if polished!

 

If you get hungry while your here they have two options; The Reagan Country Cafe or The Ronald Reagan Pub. The view from the cafe is quite impressive.

I use a combination of my iPhone and my Fujifilm X-E2 camera for all my photographs. Just depends on where I am as to which one I'll use to take my pictures with. I love to write original stories combined with my photographs. If you'd like to send me a message or comment, please do so at; maggie@hungryones.com We just celebrated our 14th Anniversary this October 2016!! So exciting!! 2015 A couple since 2003 and now on the precipice of this new journey, our fondest hope is this website serves a purpose. One of useful information presented in an elegant, beautiful photographic setting. Together we love to discover new restaurants, food trucks, diners, café’s, huts or where ever we find food being served. The love of artful, carefully crafted, passionately orchestrated food, beverages and let’s not forget desert, Is something we both enjoy immensely. Immersing ourselves in the history, culture and surrounding locations of our adventures hopefully leads to not only meeting new people, but making new friends, sharing ideas, listening to stories and learning something new everyday.
