The Great Pyramid

King Khufu's Great Pyramid (2609-2584 BC) is an outstanding building filled with heavenly beauty and immortal architecture.
The pyramid was completed in 2570 B.C. by the master architect Henmiunu, who employed 2.3 million colossal limestone blocks weighing 6 million tons.
Four hundred thousand qualified laborers worked to achieve 138.5 meters. In addition, there are additional rooms in the pyramid, such as the king's chamber.

The Great Sphinx

The Great Sphinx was carved during the rule of Pharaoh Khafre (2558–2532 BC) and was considered a kind of deity of wisdom and power, combining the man and the lion in the face and body features of the great sculpture. The Dream Steele, Thutmose IV (1401-1391 B.C), was placed behind his chin, making it the only artifact that is still impressed by the limestone block.

The Valley Temple

The Valley Temple is one of the oldest religious systems in this allegedly mythical state of worship. It was composed by Pharaoh Khafre during the fourth dynasty in the Book Of Pharaoh Dead to embalm the dead. Nonetheless, it is one of Egypt's best-preserved sites of archaeological importance.

It is the first institution in the Arab world and North Africa devoted to studying and displaying the ancient Egyptian Civilization, which covers around 4000 years of different and numerous historical periods.

Al Muizz Street

Al Muizz Street is located in the center of ancient Cairo and can be traced back to the 10th century AD when the Fatimid dynasty constructed it. Its main task was to represent the fantastic skills of the Islamic era. UNESCO registered it on the World Heritage list in 1979, recognizing its historical importance.

Khan El Khalili Bazaar

In 970, Khan El Khalili bazaar was built to establish a link from old Cairo to its colorful future. Consequently, it became the place to be for shopping and recreation, as it presented the most astonishing and unique goods of Egypt.
