Visit Egypt
Egypt’s culture has so much to offer both locals and visitors who are looking to experience its charm.
Whether you’re interested in its ancient history or simply looking for an adventure, this place, and its people, are sure to captivate your very existence.
The Nile enters Egypt a few kilometres north of a Sudanese town called Wadi Halfa through a narrow canyon that traverses sandstone and granite cliffs. The northward flowing direction of the river has thus earned Egypt’s southern border the name “Upper Egypt.” Within this stretch of the Nile is the world’s most intensive concentration of temples, tombs and palaces constructed over the span of 4,000 years.
Much like the Nile, the Red Sea coast, a once microcosm of the world that hosted sailors from far away lands, has also become a pivotal part of the country. Turquoise waves break against rocky capes and windswept beaches in the foreground of an endless mountain range, a much needed escape for the people of Cairo. The real lure here, especially for the non-locals, are the fabulous beaches and island reefs.
