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.
His visit continued with a look at the pavilions of Portugal and
the UAE, as well as participation in the international forum
"New Frontiers of Sustainable Tourism", at the Italian pavilion.
