An augmented reality (AR) exhibition called "Horizon of Khufu" recently opened in Beijing. The exhibition offers visitors a close-up understanding of the internal structures and historical context of the Khufu pyramid, the largest and tallest Egyptian pyramid in the world.

During the 45-minute experience, attendees not only have the freedom to wander through the exhibition hall but also have the opportunity to see virtual representations of other visitors within the space and engage in real-time conversations with companions from the same group. This innovative approach ensures both safety and an immersive experience, breaking away from the solitude often associated with traditional VR viewing and providing a truly immersive journey through time and space.

Before its arrival in Beijing, the "Horizon of Khufu" made its global debut in France in 2022, attracting considerable attention, with tickets selling out quickly. As 2024 marks the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and France, the "Horizon of Khufu" exhibition, a collaborative effort between Chinese and French teams, serves as a testament to the friendship between the two countries.
