Türkiye’s Deputy Minister of Culture and Tourism Gökhan Yazgı said the “Troy and Rome: Myths, Legends and Stories of the Ancient Mediterranean” exhibition in Rome has drawn attention from experts in the fields of science and tourism, adding that it could become an exhibition of global significance with a record number of visitors.
Yazgı, who was in Çanakkale for the opening of the Çanakkale Culture Route Festival, spoke about the exhibition, which was organized by the Culture and Tourism Ministry at Rome’s Colosseum.
The exhibition, which opened June 14, has made a major impact internationally, Yazgı said.
“This is our second exhibition in the heart of Rome, at the Colosseum. We previously held our Göbeklitepe exhibition there, which also attracted great interest. With our Troy exhibition, which will run until October, we have also made a major impact. Many experts, both in science and tourism, are now talking about this exhibition. With a record number of visitors, we may have created an exhibition that will hold a very special place in the world,” he said.
