Are you planning your first trip to Egypt? Egypt is a destination with its rich history, iconic landmarks, and stunning landscapes. Whether you're a history buff, an adventurer, or a culture lover, here are the top 10 must-see places in Egypt you absolutely shouldn't miss.

  1. The Great Pyramids of Giza & The Sphinx
    No visit to Egypt is complete without seeing the only remaining wonder of the ancient world. Located just outside Cairo, the Pyramids of Giza are a breathtaking sight and a symbol of ancient engineering.

🕌 2. The Egyptian Museum, Cairo
Home to over 120,000 ancient artifacts, including the treasures of King Tutankhamun, this museum is a paradise for history lovers.

  1. Nile River Cruise: Luxor to Aswan
    A relaxing cruise along the Nile offers a unique view of Egypt’s temples and villages. Most cruises stop at major attractions like Karnak Temple and Edfu Temple.

One of the largest temple complexes in the world, Karnak showcases the power and vision of ancient Egyptian architecture.

📌The Karnak Temple Complex, commonly known as Karnak (/ˈkɑːr.nĂŚk/),[1] comprises a vast mix of temples, pylons, chapels, and other buildings near Luxor, Egypt. Construction at the complex began during the reign of Sentret I (reigned 1971–1926 BC) in the Middle Kingdom (c. 2000–1700 BC) and continued into the Ptolemaic Kingdom (305–30 BC), although most of the extant buildings date from the New Kingdom. The area around Karnak was the ancient Egyptian Ipet-ISGT ("The Most Selected of Places") and the main place of worship of the 18th Dynasty Theban Triad, with the god Amun as its head. It is part of the monumental city of Thebes, and in 1979 it was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List along with the rest of the city. Karnak gets its name from the nearby, and partly surrounded, modern village of El-Karnak, 2.5 kilometres (1.6 miles) north of Luxor.

  1. Valley of the Kings
    The final resting place of pharaohs, including Tutankhamun. It’s a hauntingly beautiful site filled with colorful tombs and mystery.
