"Time Warp" Experience
Jorvik Viking Centre is not billed as a museum but as an “experience;” this type of educational representation of the past, known as a “Time Warp” experience, has become increasingly popular with the creation of Jorvik. It inspired other such sites as the “Canterbury Pilgrims Way” where you join Geoffrey Chaucer's pilgrimage. The BBC has called this experience “a new art form”, although some have criticized it as a “pop-up book view of history.”
