Discover Egypt's Monuments


Discover Egypt's Monuments

"Supported by Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, Discover Egypt's Monuments invites visitors on a virtual trip through Alexandria, Aswan, Cairo, Giza, Luxor, South Sinai, Wadi Natrun, Al-Minya, and the Red Sea. Clicking "Explore Egypt's Maps" leads visitors to an interactive map where they can scroll through locations (using the Places to Visit box on the right-hand side, under Sites and Monuments) and find pinpointed sites along the way. Each site includes a brief description (available in English or Arabic). If a site sounds particularly fascinating, click the "Read More" button to find additional highlights, history, and galleries. Visitors can also explore sites by time period (by switching the selection in the top-right from Sites and Monuments to Chronological). Want even more immersive content? The Ministry of Tourism's YouTube channel (accessible via the icon on the left-hand panel) offers video tours of many of the featured places. The Ministry of Tourism's website in its entirety is full of engaging resources. The button with three lines in the top-left corner links to these other parts of the website, including Children's World, where you will find a variety of activities and resources for the young ones in your life, and a Stories and Media hub with additional reading material."
