The largest exhibit of its kind, Maya: Hidden Worlds Revealed explores the fascinating social, natural, and spiritual realms of the ancient Maya through the eyes of powerful kings and queens and the lesser-known people who were the backbone of Maya society. Built by the Science Museum of Minnesota after over five years of research and exploration, the exhibit features immersive environments, authentic artifacts, and hands-on activities that tell the story of the ancient Maya and their modern descendants. Complete your visit to the museum with the Omnitheater film Mystery of the Maya, giving you deeper insight into the ongoing discovery of one of the greatest mysteries in scientific history.
