The timeless Complex of the Giza Pyramids is a remarkable archaeological marvel from 2600 BC, constructed by the rulers of the 4th Dynasty as a pathway to the afterlife.
The enduring Khufu Pyramid was designed by Hemiunu, the chief architect of Pharaoh Khufu (2609 BC - 2584 BC), to serve as his eternal tomb and a timeless wonder for the world. Built in 2570 BC, it was intended to be one of the tallest structures on Earth, standing at a height of 138.5 meters (454.4 ft) and weighing approximately 6 million tons, housing the royal king and queen's chambers.
The timeless Great Sphinx sculpture was crafted in the royal likeness of Pharaoh Khafre (2558–2532 BC), depicted atop a mythical lion’s body to symbolize his immense wisdom and strength. The Sphinx inspired Thutmose IV to place a mystical dream stele between its paws, highlighting his authority and mystical abilities.
The imaginary Valley Temple is a grand structure created and utilized by the kings' rulers of the 4th dynasty as a prominent center for mummification during the funerary religious ceremony known as the Opening of the Mouth.
The Grand Egyptian Museum serves as a magnificent gateway to the extraordinary ancient Egyptian achievements, reflecting over 5,000 years of continuous innovation and rich artistic creativity. This monumental site offers a unique opportunity to explore some of the most remarkable archaeological treasures and artifacts ever uncovered, including:
The Hanging Obelisk, the Statue of King Ramses II, the Ten Statues of King Senusert, the Grand Staircase, Statues of Ptolemaic Kings and Queens, the Victory Column of King Merneptah, the magnificent Royal Regalia, and the Grand Atrium with Gift Shop.

The elegant Egyptian Museum was established to showcase the greatness of the ancient Egyptian civilization that has endured through the ages. It was built in 1901 AD, located in downtown Cairo, spanning two impressive floors.
Golden Muizz Street is a remarkable example of beauty and cultural heritage, established during the Fatimid era in the 10th century AD as a principal thoroughfare.
