 Visit Cairo -
Great Pyramids of Giza
The Great Pyramids of Giza, dating back to 2500 BC are some of the most
famous manmade objects in the world. While there are actually over one
hundred Pyramids in Egypt, including at least eight more at Giza, the Great
Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops) is the only ""Wonder of the Ancient World"" that
still survives.
Great Sphinx of Giza
During your time at The Great Pyramids of Giza, there is no escaping the
mysterious Sphinx, a symbol which has come to represent the essence of Egypt
for thousands of years. With the body of a lion and the head of a king,
there is as much mystery surrounding who built it as there is determining
why it was built.
The Egyptian Museum
A visit to the Egyptian Museum at Tahrir square is an absolute must on any
visit to Cairo. It was built during the reign of Khedive Abbass Helmi II in
1897, and opened in 1902. With 107 halls you can explore the history of
Pharaonic Egypt through the 120,000 artifacts exhibited, from Narmer to
Akhnaton and Ramses. On the upper floor is the famous collection of King
Tutankhamon treasures. The pharaoh is indeed gone, but his treasures and
life still fascinate us today.
Khan el-Khalili Bazaars
Not just any market, but one of the most historic markets in the world.
Founded by the Emir Djaharks el-Khalili in 1382, the khan was responsible
for developing such a stranglehold on goods moving from the Eastern world to
the West, that it is indirectly responsible for the discovery of the
American continent. The spice markets in the Khan, a monopoly controlled by
the ruling Mamluks of Egypt, forced explorers such as Columbus to find
alternate routes for goods coming from the East. |
