Peru, and Machu Picchu, may be thousands of kilometres from Sydney, but many of its ancient treasures are closer than you think! And bringing together one of the most remarkable collections of gold, ever to grace the Australian Museum, is Machu Picchu and the Golden Empires of Peru.
Exhibition closing soon on the 11th of May!
Consisting of hundreds of artefacts, with the oldest dating back 14,000 years, Machu Picchu and the Golden Empires of Peru explores many ancient Peruvian cultures, including the Incan’s who built Machu Picchu. Visitors can expect a range of fascinating artefacts such as gold, silver, jewellery and ceramics. And for those keen to visit Machu Picchu, you can do that too, using modern technology. This immersive VR experience takes visitors soaring over the ancient Incan citadel, that is Machu Picchu. Filmed during the pandemic, this is Machu Picchu without the crowds, as you’ve never seen it before.
Hundreds of ancient artefacts- from one of the world’s oldest civilizations- it’s the adventure of a lifetime- right here in Sydney!
