This experience in Ancient Olympia uses exclusive VR glasses and an audio guide to bring the site to life. Using the headset, you'll be transported into a 3D reconstruction of the area as it looked 2,000 years ago. Colossal temples and monuments will appear around you, and you can stand inside the Temple of Zeus to view the magnificent statue. Along the way you'll witness athletes competing in the original Olympic Games and see the powerful ceremony of the lighting of the Olympic Flame.

A virtual map will help you navigate the site easily, and the audio guide will share facts and stories as the VR content animates 15 iconic monuments. The combination of visual and audio elements will give context to what you see and explain the significance of key buildings and events.
