We believe in time travel...and you?

Archeomatica participated in the guided tours of "I Viaggi di Adriano" and had the opportunity to enjoy the virtual reality system produced by the company "Carlo Cestra Digital Productions" which, in collaboration with the brand "VRBackToThePast ", offers virtual time travels, making the visit more interactive, and certainly innovative, compared to the guided tours we are used to. The VR system, consisting of a series of panoramic videos visible through a VR headset, has been developed after years of experience in digital reconstructions and animations in the archaeological and scientific field by the Carlo Cestra company which is specialized in the creation of digital content for museums and documentaries, and is capable of creating high resolution images and videos for both normal screen projections and 360 ° panoramic views.

The Silk Road, originated in ancient China’s Western Han period (202 B.C – A.D 8), started from Chang’an (now Xi’an) and connected many countries in Asia, Europe, and Africa, and finally arrived in ancient Rome. The Silk Road’s initial role was to transport China’s silk, porcelain, and other products to the other countries, but it gradually plays a role in the cultural, political, and economic communications between different countries.
