Tutankhamun
We heard there was to be a Tutankhamun exhibit in town, so off we went to see what we could see. Turns out this is different from any other exhibit we've been to.
Nothing in the exhibit is original, It is all reproductions. This sounds like a cheat, and perhaps it is. But what you get in return is a look as well crafted reproductions of everything that was found in the tomb. Rather than one or two pieces out of context, we got the full context of the search, the find, the many amazing pieces, and the life of the boy king. Pretty special.
