【Cairo】Egyptian Museum of Antiquities

Inside, you'll find treasures like Tutankhamun's artifacts and other items that are sure to captivate archaeology enthusiasts, reminiscent of what you might have seen in textbooks. Each exhibit is grand in scale, so it's recommended to either study in advance and take your time exploring or join a guided tour to listen to detailed explanations as you go. ⚠ Unfortunately, photography of Tutankhamun's artifacts is prohibited! There's also talk of them being moved to the Grand Egyptian Museum. When you visit Cairo, be sure to stop by here along with the Pyramids!

The Egyptian Museum in Cairo

A visit to Egypt is incomplete without seeing the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. From the moment you step into the historic building in Tahrir Square, you are immersed in thousands of years of history. While the museum is somewhat old and perhaps not as modern as the newly opened Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), the atmosphere and the sheer density of history inside make you forget all about that. Every corner is filled with statues, sarcophagi, and papyri that transport you to a different dynasty and the life of a different pharaoh. The most impressive section is undoubtedly the upper floor, where Tutankhamun's treasures are displayed. Seeing the famous golden death mask in person is an entirely different experience than seeing it in photographs. The craftsmanship and richness are incredible. Patience is required while navigating the crowded and sometimes overwhelming corridors, but every artifact is absolutely worth it. It's truly a paradise for history enthusiasts.
