For the first time in 30 years the treasures of Tutankhamun exhibition heading to the O2 (millennium dome) London. The on-going Egypt special - otherwise the interactive exhibition featuring 130 artifacts Egyptian treasures excavated from the tomb of the boy-king, Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs, as well as other lesser known, though equally important rulers of the fertile land are on public display for you to feast your eyes on! London is the only European city to host the ancient Egyptian treasures on 15 November 2007.

Among the chief Egyptian burial site discoveries are some amazing artifacts and antiquated mementoes of King Tut's reign that all those visiting the O2 exhibition are likely to find enlightening in terms of historical significance as well as souvenirs of a life less ordinary as the young boy-king's was. Thrilling as it was intriguing, dangerous, as it was fascinating, the exhibition has been the cause of immense sensational news stories ever since it visited the capital in the 1970s when the tomb of Tutankhamun was first displayed at the British Museum.

Likely to break all previous attendance records, the current Tutankhamun exhibition is expected to have record sales in tickets with many tourists, business visitors and locals in London vying to get a closer glimpse at the past glories of the youngest Egyptian pharaoh ever who though ruling for only a decade, managed to garner some of the most interest in Egyptian history amidst other outstanding counterparts.

A well traveled exhibition, The Golden Age of The Pharaohs has toured most of America before heading for the UK shores where it is confident of attracting large numbers to view exhibits from The Valley of the Kings ever since King Tut's tomb was unearthed in 1922.

To know the mystery behind them all, don't miss buying your Tutankhamun tickets for the O2!
