Egyptian Museum:
... Egyptian Museum Cairo. We visited the Museum in Cairo one afternoon and in fact you could probably spend not only a couple of days here a lifetime would not be long enough as there is so much to see. The museum is housed in a building of great halls built by the French in 1908. In total there are 107 halls and it would be impossible to see all of the items in a couple of hours. There is a special exhibition of ... Read the full review: Forget horrific Mummies these are Yummy Mummies. by garymarsh6 |

Egyptian Museum ... Egyptian Museum is located in the heart of downtown Cairo. As such, its surroundings are pretty polluted and traffic-ridden. Apparently this is having a seriously detrimental effect on the artifacts, so that a bigger modern museum better able to withstand the Cairo smog is apparently planned for the outskirts of Cairo near the pyramids - but don t hold your breath. I was told it would be at least 10 years and could be much longer. It s a shame the museum is suffering so, because what s inside is truly spectactular. You could literally spend days in there without getting bored. Sadly I only had a couple of hours so I m sure I just skimmed the highlights that ever...

Egyptian Museum ... Egyptian museum is without doubt a must see experience if you are visiting Cairo. The museum houses the finest collection of Egyptian antiquites in the world and is the permanent home to the Tutankhamun collection.

Contrary to what is written in most travel guide books NO cameras are permitted into the museum (they stopped selling camera permits around 2004) so don t bring one!. Security checks take place both at the main entrance to the grounds and as you enter the museum. If you have a camera, you will be sent out to depo...

Egyptian Museum ... treasures of ancient Egypt are some of the most sought after in the world. This museum houses what is arguably the best collection of ancient artefacts. The museum is divided into several rooms on two floors, from the outside the museum looks quite small, I was expecting it to look bigger, but it is deceptively large inside. The museum is a kind of rusty colour on the outside and looks quite old. The main reason that this museum is so famous is that it houses the majority of the finds from King Tutankhamen s tomb that was discovered by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon in 1922 after decades of searching. It is the only tomb found intact to this day, all the others ha... Read the full review: Simply Awe-Inspiring by sandyback75 |
