Expo Dubai: Garavaglia visits Italy pavilion

(ANSA) - ROME, JAN 10 - Tourism Minister Massimo Garavaglia on Monday visited the Italy pavilion at Expo Dubai 2020, shown around by Expo Commissioner General Paolo Glisenti.
    Among the others attending were Italian Ambassador to the United Arab Emirates Nicola Lerner and the President of tourist board ENIT, Giorgio Palmucci.
    Garavaglia was visibly fascinated by the explanations of the various exhibits on show and particularly struck by its showpiece, a 3D reconstruction of Michelangelo's David.
    Among the exhibits he toured were one unveiled Sunday on theatres in Sicily, and an immersive installation in the Spazio Accademia dedicated to the mosaics, archaeological artifacts and the architectural riches of Sicily.
    Garavaglia is at Expo for the week devoted to travel and connectivity.
