History buffs, gather round! China Media Group (CMG) just dropped a cultural bombshell in Egypt with its 'Journey Through Civilizations: An Encounter with Liangzhu' exhibition at Luxor Museum. This collab between CMG, Luxor Museum, and the China Cultural Center in Cairo is like a time machine
, blending 5,000-year-old Liangzhu artifacts with holograms and VR tech. Talk about ancient meets Insta-ready!
Why Egypt? Luxor's a UNESCO heritage hotspot – the perfect stage to showcase China's 'proof of early civilization' through jade carvings and water management systems. 'This isn’t just archaeology – it’s a conversation between humanity’s greatest hits,' said one organizer.
Egyptian culture chiefs are hyped too, calling it a 'new chapter in cultural diplomacy.'
Pro tip for globetrotters : The exhibition’s 2024 world tour means more cities might get this fusion of history and holograms. Stay tuned!
