Decode the past of one of the world's most ancient civilization. If you have even a remote interest in history then Egpyt welcomes you to dwell in its pharonic past. Egpyt, the land of pyramids, encompasses more than just pyramids and statues, as grand as they may be. A journey through Egypt is a Victorian adventure with 21st century access. Pyramids, temples, tombs, the Nile valley and the desert make this country a unique place.
Although the country is rather big, the major tourist highlights are all located in a more or less straight line along the river Nile.The river Nile flows from south to north. It enters the country in the south at the border with Sudan where the Nile flows through Lake Nasser the largest artificial lake in the world. Further downstream, north of Cairo, the Nile becomes a delta before ending in the Mediterranean Sea.
