The top of the pyramid - the fourth part of Shanghai's "World of Dialogue".

The world's largest and Asia's highest-level export exhibition of ancient Egyptian cultural relics in history... 788 precious ancient Egyptian cultural relics, including statues of pharaohs such as Tutankhamun, Amenemhat III and Ramses II, sets of mummy coffins, gold jewelry of the Queen, and newly discovered painted wooden coffins and animal mummies in the Saqqara area and statues and other key exhibits...witness a condensed history of ancient Egyptian civilization. In principle, no more than 300 Egyptian cultural relics can be loaned to foreign countries; however, nearly 800 pieces were lent to Shanghai Bo this time, which is the first time in history... The promotion and peripherals of Shanghai Bo are still very good. I bought an early bird ticket, but was frightened by the craze for exhibitions during the summer vacation, so I postponed my plan and learned some knowledge about ancient Egypt. Towards the end of the year, I made a reservation for a weekend morning show. There are not as many people as previously reported. If you can catch up with the opening to enter, it will feel like a private venue, and the experience will be quite good. It should be said that the curator is still very careful. The exhibits are rich and of high quality, including many famous cultural relics in ancient Egyptian history. It is strongly recommended to improve your knowledge of ancient Egypt before going to the exhibition, and straighten out the relationships between gods and the inheritance of famous pharaohs/characters in history, so that it will be more interesting to go to the exhibition. After all, there is a huge amount of information, and you won’t be able to remember it if you rely on an on-site tour guide or explanation for several hours. The exhibition is divided into three separate parts. The general history "The Kingdom of the Pharaohs" is all-encompassing, starting from the creation myth, covering social systems, daily life, spiritual world and other aspects; the other two special exhibitions "The Secret of Saqqara" and "The Age of Tutankhamun" have independent narratives , also integrates visual images and cultural relic models to increase interest and interactivity. 1. There is a VR exhibition on the second floor. If you like it, you can try it. If you purchase tickets in advance, you can enter through the special passage on the left instead of waiting in the serpentine passage on the right. 2. Bring your Mainland China ID card. You need to swipe your ID card to enter the three exhibition halls. 3. The guidebook is only available in "The Kingdom of the Pharaohs", the quantity is limited, first come first served 4. There are many kinds of souvenirs, you can scan them when you finally go out. The names written in ancient Egyptian characters on papyrus are on the second floor, which is quite unique. 5. There is also an exhibition "Glory of Persia" on the second floor, which also has many exquisite works. You must know that ancient Egypt was finally destroyed by the Persian Empire. The two exhibitions are displayed at the same time, which has a sense of historical evolution.
