The Giza Pyramid Complex, also known as the Giza Necropolis, sits atop the Giza Plateau in Egypt and is home to the iconic Great Pyramid, along with the pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure and their surrounding structures. This legendary site, built during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom, also includes the majestic Great Sphinx, several ancient burial grounds, and the remnants of a workers’ village that once supported the pyramid builders.

The Great Sphinx of Giza is a massive limestone monument depicting a reclining sphinx—a mythical creature with a lion’s body and a human head. Positioned facing the east, it stands proudly on the Giza Plateau along the west bank of the Nile River in Giza, Egypt.

Papyrus, considered an early ancestor of today’s books, is thought to have first emerged in Egypt during the First Dynasty. Crafted from the papyrus plant that once grew abundantly along the Nile River, it played a vital role in ancient writing and record-keeping.

Stop 5
The Cairo Tower is a modern landmark of Egypt’s capital, recognized for its striking lotus-inspired lattice design. Rising 187 meters above the vibrant Zamalek district, it functions as a major telecommunications tower and offers sweeping views of the city.
6
Tahrir Square (Midan Al-Tahrir), one of Cairo’s most famous and expansive public spaces, sits at the very center of the city. Once called Khedive Ismail Square, it was renamed “Tahrir,” meaning “liberation,” after the 1952 revolution that ended the monarchy and ushered in the modern republic. Recognizing its deep historical importance and its status as a symbol of contemporary Egypt, the government launched a major redevelopment initiative to restore and enhance the square. Tahrir has also been a pivotal gathering point, serving as the starting location for both the January 25 and June 30 revolutions.
