It is characterized by the presence of popular bazaars, shops and restaurants, as well as the large number of tourists and the familiarity of its residents with them. The old neighborhood of "Khan al-Khalili" has reached the age of 600 years, as it is considered one of the oldest markets in Al-Mahrousa and the Middle East, and it still preserves its old architecture since the Mamluk era, as confirmed by the Egyptian State Information Service. Khan Al-Khalili was not influenced by the factors of time, and he remained an inspiration to writers and artists, always inciting their brothers to creativity, as Naguib Mahfouz wrote, his novel “Khan al-Khalili” inspired by the atmosphere of the old neighborhood, describing it as: “In the long street you will find square buildings that connect between them.

Pyramids of Giza
2 hoursAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThe Giza pyramids are located on the Giza plateau in the Giza governorate on the west bank of the Nile. It was built about 25 centuries BC, between 2480 and 2550 BC. It includes three pyramids: Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure. And the pyramids, according to one of the hypotheses, are royal tombs, each bearing the name of the king who built it and was buried in it, and the pyramid construction here is a stage of the development of tomb architecture in ancient Egypt. It started with a small pit that turned into an underground room and then into several rooms topped by a terrace. After that, it developed to take the form of a listed pyramid at the hands of the engineer Imhotep, the minister of the Pharaoh, and King Djoser in the third dynasty. This was followed by two attempts by King Senefru, founder of the Fourth DynastyThe Sphinx of Memphis
1 hoursAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThe Sphinx is a statue of a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human being carved from limestone, and it is likely that it was originally covered with a layer of plaster and colored, and traces of the original colors are still visible next to one of his ears. Located on the Giza Plateau on the west bank of the Nile in Giza, Egypt, the Sphinx is also the guardian of the plateau. It is the oldest known colossal carvings. Its length is about 73.5 meters, including 15 meters long for its front feet, its width is 19.3 meters, and its highest height from the ground is about 20 meters to the top of the head. It is believed that the ancient Egyptians built it during the reign of King Khafre (2558 BC-2532 BC), the builder of the second pyramid in Giza.Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids
1 hoursAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThe pyramid of Djoser, the pyramid of Saqqara, or the step pyramid is an archaeological landmark at the Saqqara necropolis northwest of the ancient city of Memphis in Egypt. Built during the 27th century BC for the burial of Pharaoh Djoser. Built for him by his minister Imhotep. The engineer and doctor Amhotep was the principal architect of the vast funerary complex in the pyramid's courtyard and the ceremonial structures surrounding it. The first Egyptian pyramid consisted of six mastabas built on top of each other, something that represented a tremendous development in the design of tombs in that era when one mastaba was only satisfied. The step pyramid of Djoser is 62 meters (203 feet) high, with a base area of 109 meters x 125 meters (358 feet x 410 feet), and was covered with polished white limestone.The step pyramid is considered the first stone structure of its time,although the enclosures known as the Director's Bridge appear to have preceded the construction of the pyramid.Pyramids of Giza
