This place is full of gold and royal chairs and pictures of the royal family, including the image of Mohamed Ali Pasha, the hall flashed with majestic beauty.


              -Bawiti Museum
(Valley of the Golden Mummies)
The Bawiti Museum and a huge burial site in the middle of the desert showcasing more than 10,000 mummies from the Greco-Roman era 2,000 years ago. 

           -Egyptian Antiquieties Museum

There really is a "mummy scream" of Ramesses the Third, A young boy in his early twenties, he was poisoned after trying to kill his father and ascend the throne.
If you focus on that mummy, you can hear a faint loud voice of torment and pain still reverberating after 3200 years !! Horrible !!


Today we may be known as one of the most famous pharaohs who ruled ancient Egypt during its most powerful eras, but at the end of the day, aside from being king, he was just a young boy who loved to play.

Mission: When he died at the age of only 18, King Tutankhamun not only took his favorite throne chair, his chariots, jewels, slippers, pleasures, sculptures with him to his grave, but also took his favorite toys on the chalkboard and twenty squares. About him in the Hereafter.


This highly festive golden chariot, Tutankhamun, the little boy who was appointed king, marched in glory among the crowds of ancient Egypt's delightful streets on more than 3,000 years ago! ! Wonderful

This is the original vehicle displayed at the Egyptian Antiquities Museum in Cairo.


What caused the jackal to become a god, called "Anubis", which was associated with the process of the afterlife and mummification in the ancient Egyptian religion ??
 That since Zeppelin jackal, wandering tombs in the desert, uncovering dead bodies from shallow graves and eating their body, the ancient Egyptians decided to attack that dilemma by turning the jackal into a god, hoping to protect the dead instead of eating with them.


I became obsessed with ancient Egyptian history and the Pharaohs, how they lived and how they prepared for the journey of the afterlife, their art, hieroglyphics, battles, victories, and empires.
This is an incredible 4,000-year-old witness, with colorful inscriptions and inscriptions, requiring a small part of the daily life of the Pharaohs! Preserving colors over thousands of years is truly incredible .

              -Great Sphinx of Giza
He is the oldest and largest statue in the world ever built.
He is the Sphinx of Giza. And everything else is very atomic beside my bony and hypertrophic .

The funerary mask of the boy King Tutankhamun of the 18th Dynasty of Ancient Pharaonic Egypt is a bucket list item of its own.
Although King Tut was in the throne at the age of nine and died only at the age of 18, due to a chariot accident or a hippo attack, he is considered one of the most famous and controversial kings who ruled ancient Egypt to this day.

Did you know that when Howard Carter set foot in the proper tomb of King Tutankhamun in 1923, a large wooden sarcophagus was found in the center of the room with more than four other manuscripts, until he finally reached the main golden sarcophagus, which contained the mummy of King Tutankhamun , Decorated with all his jewelry, crown, space and baskets, all made of pure gold.
