Day 2 (CAIRO TOUR)

Transfer with your Egyptologist by air conditioned vehicles for a full day tour visiting the Egyptian Museum whichexhibits over 145 000 objects, consists of artifacts from the tombs of kings and members of the royal families of the Middle Kingdom found at Dahshour in 1894, consisting of more than 3500 Pieces. Then we will visit the Pyramids which is made up of approximately two Million blocks of limestone with each weighing more than two tons. It belonged to the Pharaoh Khufu and once held his body. The Second Pyramid belongs to the Pharaoh Khafre. The top of the pyramid has some limestone left with a white cap on top of the pyramid that can be still seen the pyramid of Menkaure or the Third Pyramid is the smallest of the three pyramids. Nearby is Sphinx which has the head of a man and the body of a lion Of Egypt, there are numerous sphinxes, usually with the Head of a king wearing his headdress and the Body of a lion, the head and face of the Sphinx certainly reflect a style that belongs to Egypt's old kingdom and to the 4th dynasty In particular. Papyrus & Perfumes shops are among our program of today. Here are examples of most of the papyrus art that I acquired in Egypt. Some of the art used gilded (gold/silver) paint, which didn't scan well, but at least you'll get the idea as to what they look like.

 

Then we will visit theCitadel (Alabaster Mosque). The massive Citadel complex dominates the city skyline. It was built on a limestone spur by Salah al-Din (Saladin) in the 12th century. The Citadel offers fantastic panoramic views of Islamic Cairo in a castle setting rich in history. Khan El-Khalili Bazaar will be our next stop.It's an ancient shopping area. The suq (which is the Arabic name for bazaar, or market) dating back to 1382. Return to hotel in Cairo for O/N.
