Discovering Ancient Egypt in Asheville — Jen33Travel

When you visit the Biltmore, you will truly feel as if you were there with Carter as he made this amazing discovery. Before entering, visitors watch a short film. As the story unfolds, you see Carter searching tirelessly, growing doubts and near misses – until that step leading to the buried entrance is finally revealed. You see Carter pushing away the door, looking at the candle and suddenly, the movies stop just as Carter is about to enter the room. The door opens to the Biltmore Gallery. When you walk in the door, something magical happens. It’s as if you’re actually walking into discovery, with everything set up exactly as Carter found it, and each artifact carefully displayed where it was nearly 3,000 years ago.

The sensation is chilling and amazing as if you were the one who discovered it, the first to witness the ancient wonder as Carter did all those years ago.
