It was built over 1000 years ago and is rich in historical sites, including Pharaonic, Coptic, and Islamic sites. To explore the major attractions, at least two full days are recommended.
The Giza Plateau: Located in Giza, on the outskirts of Cairo, the Giza Plateau is home to the Giza Necropolis. This site, dating back around 4500 years, includes the Great Pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, which are the only surviving wonders of the ancient world. It also houses the iconic Sphinx, several cemeteries, a workers' village, and an industrial complex. The Giza Plateau is Cairo's most popular attraction, drawing thousands of visitors every year.
The Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops): The Pyramid of Khufu is the oldest and largest pyramid in Giza. Built around 2570 BC, it stood at an impressive height of 146 meters.
The Pyramid of Khafre (Chephren): The Pyramid of Khafre is the second-tallest and second-largest pyramid in Giza. It served as the tomb of the Fourth-Dynasty pharaoh Khafre, who ruled from around 2558 to 2532 BC.
The Pyramid of Menkaure (Mycerinus): The Pyramid of Menkaure is the smallest of the three main pyramids in Giza. It is located on the Giza Plateau and is believed to be the tomb of the Fourth Dynasty Egyptian Pharaoh Menkaure.
The Great Sphinx: Carved from a single piece of stone, the Sphinx is one of the world's most famous monuments. It features the body of a lion and the face of a man, closely resembling that of King Khafre. The Sphinx is 70 meters long and 20 meters high.
The Egyptian Museum: Also known as the Cairo Museum, the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities is home to an extensive collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts. It boasts around 120,000 items, with a representative selection on display and the rest housed in storerooms. The museum was constructed in 1901 by the Italian construction company Garozzo-Zaffarani and designed by the French architect Marcel Dourgnon. It is one of the largest museums in the region.
Philae Temple: Dedicated to the goddess Isis, Philae Temple tells the famous Egyptian mythology of Isis, her beloved husband's resurrection, the birth of her son Horus, and the mummification of Osiris. The temple was relocated to the island of Agilika after the construction of the High Dam to protect it from flooding. It was originally built during the reign of Ptolemy II in Egypt's Greco-Roman Period. In the past, there were obelisks in front of the temple, but they were removed by British Consul Henry Salt in 1918 and are now located in a garden in Dorset, England.
The High Dam: The High Dam is a rock-fill dam situated at the northern border between Egypt and Sudan. It is considered an engineering marvel, built to protect Egypt from the annual floods of the Nile. Construction began in 1960 and was completed in 1968, with its official inauguration taking place in 1971. The dam stands 111 meters high, stretches 3,830 meters in length, and has a base width of 980 meters. Its spillway has a discharge capacity of 11,000 cubic meters per second.
The Temple of Kom Ombo: This unique temple is dedicated to two gods, Horus (the falcon god) and Sobek (the crocodile god). It was built by Ptolemy VI and features duplicated courts, halls, sanctuaries, and rooms for each deity. The southern half of the temple is dedicated to Sobek, the creator of the world in ancient Egyptian religion, while the northern part is dedicated to Horus.
The Temple of Edfu (Temple of Horus): The Temple of Edfu is dedicated to Horus, the avenging son of Isis and Osiris. It is also referred to as "Apollopolis Magna" in ancient Greek documents, as the Greeks associated Horus with their god Apollo. Located in Edfu, about 109 kilometers from Luxor, it is one of the most well-preserved sites in Egypt. The temple was completely buried under desert sands and was rediscovered in the 19th century.
The Valley of the Kings: The Valley of the Kings served as the burial site for almost all Pharaonic kings from the 18th to the 20th dynasties. Among the notable tombs are those of Tutankhamun, Tutmosis I, Tutmosis III, Ramses VI, Amonhotep II, and Mrenptah. During the visit, tourists can explore three tombs, depending on which ones are open at the time.
The Temple of Queen Hatshepsut: Also known as the Deir El-Bahari Temple, it is located on the West Bank of the River Nile. This temple served as the mortuary temple of Queen Hatshepsut, the first known female monarch who ruled for about two decades. She was the stepmother of Pharaoh Thutmose III.
