Skopje, Republic of Macedonia : 5.9.2018 - Archaeological Museum of Macedonia #123476566
Description
All gleaming and shiny new, this supersized pile of Italianate-styled marble has been a giant receptacle for Skopje`s recent splurge on government-led monuments to boost national pride. Inside, there are three floors displaying the cream of Macedonian archaeological excavations beneath the dazzle of hundreds of tiny lights. Highlights include Byzantine treasures; sophisticated 3D reconstructions of early Macedonian faces from skulls; a pint-sized replica of an early Christian basilica showing the life phases of mosaic conservation; and a Phoenician royal necropolis.
