Traveling Egypt

Great things to see if traveling in Egypt.

Egypt is a place of great mystery. It holds a corner of my heart and I have had many dreams of this place and of my past lives in places such as Cairo. The Capitol of Egypt “Cairo” is a city that never sleeps.

It is said, the night has a thousand eyes. I thought it would be nice to share with you the readers some of the landmarks of Egypt; it has many places and things to see.

One of my favorite landmarks is the Tower in the city of Cairo. You can see as far as the eyes will allow and pretty well in all directions. It is a freestanding tower, (187 meter) or (617 feet) high.

This concrete structure is located in the Zamalex district on Gezira Island in the River Nile.

You can see by looking at the picture that it is a cool tower.

If you are ever in Egypt, you will want to visit some of its Universities, as they are a site to see. Cairo is considered the hub of education for the completely Arab world.

The picture below is of the Cairo University.

You may also want to visit the Great Pyramids of Egypt; take in the history of them and pass it along to your children. They are really awesome and very rich with information concerning the culture and history. Students if planning on a field trip to these places would come away with many memories.

Another of my absolute favorite sites is the Great Sphinx. If you are ever in Egypt, it is one of your top to do list. You will not regret it.

You may want to take a tour deep inside one or more of the Great Pyramids also. You can learn a lot of ancient history.

This is a great shot of the inside of one.

 

The Great Pyramids are also considered the world's oldest mysteries. There is still much history buried here and one day soon, I am sure we will hear of many new finds beneath the sands of Egypt.

You may also consider visiting some of the tombs that belonged to the Kings.

King Tut the ruler of Egypt tomb is shown above.

 

This is the face of King Tut and it is truly amazing. I hope you have enjoyed some of the wonders of Egypt with me. I loved writing about them.
