The copy of Syrian monument destroyed by terrorist group Islamic State in the Syrian Palmyra has been recreated in London's Trafalgar Square, Gazeta reported quoting BBC.
The model of Palmyra's destroyed Triumphal Arch was made from marble using 3D technology from photographs of the original.
It was created by experts from the Institute of Digital Archaeology.
In three days the Triumphal arch will move to other cities, including New York and Dubai. It is expected to be taken to Palmyra next year.
Syria's director of antiquities Maamoun Abdulkarim stated that nobody will ever be able to recreate the Triumphal arch the way it was before the destruction of ISIS. However, what they do is respect for Palmyra as to a historical monument.
