Pyramids and the Egyptian Museum
Description
The Pyramids: located in the Giza necropolis, they are the great gateway of Egypt. They immediately come to mind whenever the name of this country is mentioned. The visit to the pyramids consists of three stops:
First, a stop at either the first pyramid, Khufu’s (Cheops), or the second, Khafre’s (Chephren). In this way, visitors can see them and experience the interior of either Khafre’s or Menkaure’s pyramid, contemplating another stage in the evolution of funerary architecture during the Old Kingdom.
The second stop is a panoramic visit of the entire necropolis.
The final stop is at the enigmatic and legendary figure of the Sphinx, along with the architectural complex of the site (the Valley Temple).
The Egyptian Art Museum deserves a deep and meaningful introduction in order to understand the changes in artistic taste over more than three thousand years, which span the life of Egyptian culture in its pharaonic aspect. Visitors will see the art of the Old, Middle, and New Kingdoms, along with the famous treasures of Tutankhamun.
