This exhibition is the first in France to be dedicated to one of history\u2019s greatest conquerors: Chinggis Khaan.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the Mongol plains to the southernmost borders of China, from the Pacific Ocean to the far reaches of the Middle East, Chinggis Khaan and his descendants built a vast empire during the 13th<\/sup> century that would change the face of the Earth.

At their peak, Mongol controlled more than 22% of the Earth\u2019s surface, and Chinggis Khaan\u2019s grandson, Kublai Khaan, Great Khaan of the Mongol, became Emperor of China by founding the Yuan Dynasty, establishing the capital in Dadu (current-day Beijing). After years of violent conquest, the \u201cPax Mongolica\u201d allowed for commercial, scientific, and artistic relations to flourish between the East and West, allowing for an unparalleled period of exchange. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the rare exhibition of objects from Mongolia’s national collections \u2013 including a large number of national treasures, complemented by objects from major French and European museums<\/strong> \u2013 this exhibition offers an insight into the history of this great empire of Chinggis Khaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This exhibition was made with the support of the Mongol government, through its loan<\/strong> of priceless items from its national collections, and notably from the new Chinggis Khaan National Museum<\/strong>. This show has been organized through the combined forces of Presidents of the two Republics \u2013 Mongolia and France \u2013  <\/strong>and has been awarded the distinction of being an \u201cexhibition of national interest<\/strong>\u201d by the French Ministry of Culture. More than just an exhibition on the military glory of one of history\u2019s greatest conquerors, this show will take a new approach to showing how the Mongol changed the world.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This exhibition will engage with visitors in many ways.<\/strong>
Atmospheric sounds <\/strong>will be played throughout the exhibition to take visitors on a voyage of discovery. Several films have been<\/strong> produced that focus on key themes, such as the Silk Road, the figure of Genghis Khan, and the Mongols\u2019 new cartographic vision of the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A number of touch-screens <\/strong>will allow visitors to browse through documents and texts on objects \u2013 many of which are exceptional in terms of their multicultural origins. And, perhaps the pinnacle of the exhibition: a projected, life-size, nearly 3-metre tall, headstone <\/strong>accompanied by visual and sound effects. It will surely <\/strong>be one of the exhibition\u2019s highlights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
