Another most important ceremony, the Inti Raymi, the feast of the Sun, a splendid star, it dispenses its essence on crops and all beings, it is there- fore the god of life par excellence.
The masterpieces and symbolic objects of the greatest Peruvian museums are integrated into an immersive staging thanks to augmented reality which allows visitors to enter fully into a virtual monumental environ- ment. An Escape Game also comes to animate the course for adventurers of all ages.
Machu Picchu, Inca citadel installed in the high mountains of the Andes above the valley of the Urubamba river, was built in the 15th century. Abandoned thereafter, it remains famous for its original design in huge blocks of dry stone without mortar.The architectural ensemble is unique for its panoramic view and its astronomical alignments.
The reasons for its construction remain a mystery locked in the secret knots of the Quipus, this three-dimensional writing system based on cords carrying knots, the khipu.
The first Machu Picchu expedition in virtual reality, this exhibition is a fabulous journey through space and time, an adventure worthy of the greatest explorers in search of mysteries.
