linux - How to copy symlinks to target as normal folders

i have a folder with symlinks:

marek@marek$ ls -al /usr/share/solr/
razem 36
drwxr-xr-x   5 root root  4096 2010-11-30 08:25 .
drwxr-xr-x 358 root root 12288 2010-11-26 12:25 ..
drwxr-xr-x   3 root root  4096 2010-11-24 14:29 admin
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root    14 2010-11-24 14:29 conf -> /etc/solr/conf

i want to copy it to ~/solrTest but i want to copy files from symlink as well

when i try to cp -r /usr/share/solr/ ~/solrTest

i will have symlink here:

marek@marek$ ls -al ~/solrTest
