Celebrate the spirit of exploration
Rolex Explorers Landing celebrates the stories, passion, and impact of National Geographic Explorers. Divided into four thematic areas — Spark, Trek, Purpose and Impact — the experience follows the journey of exploration, from the first spark of curiosity to the lasting change Explorers create in the world. Driven by our shared human desire to ask questions, seek answers and better understand how the world works, the exhibit shows that exploration is not a destination — it’s a lifelong pursuit that connects and inspires us all.
