Sometimes I am lucky enough to be able to visit an exhibition before it opens. This has been the case with the immersive Pompeii exhibition, which opens its doors on Friday, September 8 at Matadero Madrid. The visit took place yesterday for a privileged few, among whom I was, and I must confess that I thought it was spectacular.
I've already been to Tutankhamun's, and I really liked it, but I think this one is far better. Because I think the immersive room improves on that of ancient Egypt, and because I think the Metaverse Room is a marvel of technology. Being able to walk through a Roman house in Pompeii, to see how everything was, to practically feel at that time, is incredible.
The Virtual Reality Room is also very good, with a hectic 6-minute tour of Pompeii. A 360-degree experience that starts very close to the city's amphitheater, where a gladiator fight takes place, a fight between two ships and then the explosion of the Vesuvius volcano.
All this is accompanied by a series of explanatory panels where we are illustrated about life in the city, life in the time of the Roman Empire, how Pompeii arose, what things we could see in the great city. We are also told about the discovery of the ruins, the historical moment in which it was made and the tourist importance of the area.
In addition we will be able to see the recreations of the plaster casts of the people who died during the explosion of the volcano. In total 5 figures that represent the horror of the moment, the horror of the people who died almost instantly because of the ash, the high temperatures, the acids, the pyroclastic rain.
Happy Thursday!
