When visiting Biltmore, you truly feel as if you’re right there with Carter making this astonishing discovery. Before entering, visitors watch a short film. As the story unfolds, you see Carter tirelessly searching, the growing doubt and near misses – until finally, that step leading to the buried doorway is uncovered. You see Carter chiseling away at the door, peering in with the candle and suddenly, the films stops right as Carter is about to enter the chamber. The door opens to the Biltmore exhibit. As you step through the door, something magical happens. It’s as if you’re actually walking into his discovery, everything set up exactly as Carter found it, each artifact carefully displayed precisely where it was nearly 3,000 years ago.
The sensation is chilling and awe-inspiring as if you are the one discovering it, the first to witness the ancient wonder like Carter did all those years ago.
