Adventure World, in collaboration with its long-standing partner, the Australian Museum, have launched an extraordinary Australian-first exhibition: RAMSES & the Gold of the Pharaohs. The new immersive multisensory experience unveils the life and triumphs of Ramses II, famously known as Ramses the Great, who reigned over Egypt for a 67 years — the second longest reign of any pharaoh — and who also lived to 92 years.
Exclusive to Sydney, this blockbuster exhibition showcases 182 priceless artifacts, including the awe-inspiring coffin of Ramses the Great, along with Egyptian treasures and unique relics. Many of these artifacts, some representing the exceptional pharaoh himself, have never before left the shores of Egypt.
