History in Egypt

Egypt's sprawling, energetic capital on the Nile, packed with pharaonic treasures, medieval mosques and buzzing bazaars.

Home to the last surviving Wonder of the Ancient World, where the Great Pyramids and Sphinx rise at the desert's edge.

The world's greatest open-air museum, where the temples and tombs of ancient Thebes line both banks of the Nile.

Egypt's laid-back southern gateway, where feluccas drift past Nubian villages and granite islands in the Nile.

Egypt's Mediterranean second city, mixing corniche breezes and fresh seafood with faded cosmopolitan grandeur.
