Egypt offers a wealth of historical and cultural attractions. Top highlights include the Pyramids of Giza, the Great Sphinx, the Egyptian Museum, and the temples of Abu Simbel. A Nile River cruise between Luxor and Aswan is also a popular way to experience the country. Other notable sites include the Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple, and the bustling Khan el-Khalili bazaar. Resorts like Sharm El Sheikh and Hurghada offer opportunities for relaxation and water sports.
Cairo is a large city, home to the ancient heart and soul of Egypt. Travelers may flock from far and wide to see the Giza pyramid complex, but the metropolis boasts a world-class culinary scene and its own unique Middle Eastern culture too.
The city is most famous for containing the famous Giza Pyramids Complex that holds one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Great Pyramid of King Khufu, the world's oldest and biggest statue the Sphinx and the house of mummification the Valley temple.
The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), also known as the Giza Museum, is an archaeological museum in Giza, about 2 kilometre from the Giza pyramid complex. The museum hosts over 100 000 artifacts from ancient Egyptian civilization, including the complete Tutankhamun collection, and many pieces will be on display for the first time. With 81 000 m2 of floor space, it will be the world's largest archaeological museum. It is being built as part of a new master plan for the Giza Plateau, known as "Giza 2030".
This kind of tourism is characterized by the presence of many fast trips by small boats called Nile felucca trips, as well as cruises on the Nile River by ship, which encourages enjoying the experience of this unique type of entertainment on the great Nile River.
The Nile (also known as the Nile River or River Nile) is an important river in Africa that flows northwards into the Mediterranean Sea. At roughly 6 650 km long, it is among the longest rivers in the world. Its drainage basin covers eleven countries: the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, Burundi, Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya, Ethiopia, Eritrea, South Sudan, Sudan, and Egypt. It plays an important economic role in the economy of these nations, and it is the primary water source for South Sudan, Sudan and Egypt.
