Walk through the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities housing relics that date back to 4000 BC. The world-famous treasures of Tutankhamun that were extracted from his tomb in the Valley of the Kings are also housed here. See the fascinating Mummy Room, where more than 20 pharaohs lie in state. Continue to the ancient capital of Memphis and the world-famous Step Pyramid of King Zoser, the oldest known Egyptian pyramid. |  | Travel to the Giza Plateau, site of the pyramids of Mycerinus, Chefren and the Great Pyramid of Cheops, the only survivor of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Here the Great Sphinx, measuring 190 feet high and 65 feet high, still stands as centurion over these magnificent royal tombs. This monumental landmark was carved out of a single piece of rock in the shape of a lion with a pharaoh's head. Visit the 141-foot-long funerary boat of King Cheops, hailed as the single most important find in Egypt since the tomb of Tutankhamun. |
