The largest exhibition to ever showcase Peru’s historic legacy and extraordinary biodiversity, the international exhibition Machu Picchu e gli imperi d’oro del Perù (Machu Picchu and the Golden Empires of Peru) opened on October 8 at the Museo delle Culture in Milan, with a lavish celebration of Peru’s vast culture.
Running in Milan until February 19th, 2023, this groundbreaking event is produced by World Heritage Exhibitions (the makers of “Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of Pharaohs”) in alliance with Inkaterra Asociación. With a selection of more than 180 amazing artifacts, the exhibition displays terracotta works of great expressiveness and technical perfection, as well as gold and silver items and textiles. Machu Picchu e gli imperi d’oro del Perù also offers the opportunity to experience a real flight simulation over the
sacred city of Machu Picchu that stimulates the senses of sight, hearing and the sense of movement, through an integrated virtual reality station with visual and sound VR movement. RAI Cultura hails Machu Picchu e gli imperi d’oro del Perù as “an immersive experience”, recommending the flight simulation over the sacred city of Machu Picchu surrounded by mountains and forest – a truly emotional journey.
Under the framework provided by the exhibition, Museo della Culture presents L’Anno del Perù (‘The Year of Peru’). A palimpsest celebrating the cultural relationship that bonds Italy with Peru, this multidisciplinary program includes creative labs, workshops and cultural events which explore Peruvian identity – from textiles and music to literature and gastronomy.
At the exhibition’s gift shop, visitors will receive special rates and promotions to stay at Inkaterra lodges for a dream trip across Peru. “Machu Picchu e gli imperi d’oro del Perù is the most innovative way to welcome travelers from all around the world to explore our many wonders,” says exhibition partner José Koechlin.
