Quick Facts About Egypt
Discover Egypt
The Great Pyramid of Giza is 4,500 years old and was built without modern machines. Cairo has bazaars, domed mosques, and museums that hold treasures such as King Tutankhamun's golden mask. Pharaohs were buried in the Valley of the Kings. Abu Simbel is a site of massive stone temples.
Each year the Nile flooded and left rich soil for farming in the desert. A green valley still follows the river, with the red Sahara beyond it. Ancient art, hieroglyphs, and old buildings still inspire people. Guests are met with warm hospitality.
