The Capital Museum is now hosting an exhibition in Beijing that brings together the ancient civilizations of Mesoamerica and the Andes in a single showcase. Running through the 2026 Beijing Culture Forum, the display traces the history of the Americas, from the Maya maize myths to the golden kings of the Andes. Key artifacts on display include hunters in jaguar-patterned war skirts and a lost-and-found golden crown. The exhibition highlights the cultural resonance carried by human migration some 15,000 years ago, offering visitors a rare chance to explore the ancient stories of a distant continent without leaving the city.
