The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities in Cairo, often referred to as the Egyptian Museum, boasts a vast collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts, totaling approximately 120,000 items, though only a fraction is on public display. Established in 1901 by the Italian firm Garozzo-Zaffarani, it stands as one of the largest museums in the area. However, it is set to be succeeded by the Grand Egyptian Museum in Giza, which officially opened in 2020.

Salah El-Din Citadel, commonly referred to as the Citadel of Cairo, is an ancient fortress located on Muqattam Hill, commanding a view over the city. Constructed in the 12th century by Salah El-Din (Saladin) to defend Cairo from Crusader forces, the citadel is celebrated for its beautiful Islamic architectural features, most notably the grand Mosque of Muhammad Ali. It has acted as the administrative center for several rulers throughout its history and provides breathtaking views of the Cairo skyline. Today, it is a popular tourist attraction, home to museums that showcase the area’s historical significance.

Egypt boasts a wealth of ancient masonry structures known as pyramids, with a documented total of at least 118. The majority of these pyramids were constructed during the Old and Middle Kingdom periods, serving primarily as burial sites for pharaohs and their queens.

A sphinx is a legendary creature often shown with a human head, a lion’s body, and in some variations, falcon wings. According to Greek mythology, the sphinx has a woman’s head, lion’s haunches, and bird wings. This mythical figure is infamous for her malicious disposition, challenging those she encounters with riddles and executing anyone who fails to solve them.

Papyrus represents an ancient writing material that is often thought of as a precursor to modern books. This medium originated in Egypt and was made from the abundant papyrus plant found in the region. Its usage can be traced back to at least the First Dynasty of Egypt, marking it as one of the earliest writing surfaces known to history.
