Pyramids of Giza - Giza pyramids are located on the Giza plateau in the Giza governorate on the west bank of the Nile. It was built about 25 centuries BC, between 2480 and 2550 BC. It includes three pyramids: Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure.
And the pyramids, according to one of the hypotheses, are royal tombs, each bearing the name of the king who built it and was buried in it, and the pyramid construction here is a stage of the development of tomb architecture in ancient Egypt. It started with a small pit that turned into an underground room and then into several rooms topped by a terrace. After that, it developed to take the form of a listed pyramid at the hands of the engineer Imhotep, the minister of the Pharaoh, and King Djoser in the third dynasty. This was followed by two attempts by King Senefru, founder of the Fourth Dynasty

Great Sphinx - Sphinx is a statue of a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human being carved from limestone, and it is likely that it was originally covered with a layer of plaster and colored, and traces of the original colors are still visible next to one of his ears. Located on the Giza Plateau on the west bank of the Nile in Giza, Egypt, the Sphinx is also the guardian of the plateau. It is the oldest known colossal carvings. Its length is about 73.5 meters, including 15 meters long for its front feet, its width is 19.3 meters, and its highest height from the ground is about 20 meters to the top of the head. It is believed that the ancient Egyptians built it during the reign of King Khafre (2558 BC-2532 BC), the builder of the second pyramid in Giza.

Khan Al-Khalili - Khan El Khalili, one of the old neighborhoods of Cairo, is a great tourist attraction for visitors to Cairo and Egypt in general. It is characterized by the presence of popular bazaars, shops and restaurants, as well as the large number of tourists and the familiarity of its residents with them.
The old neighborhood of “Khan al-Khalili” has reached the age of 600 years, as it is considered one of the oldest markets in Al-Mahrousa and the Middle East, and it still preserves its old architecture since the Mamluk era, as confirmed by the Egyptian State Information Service.

Khan Al-Khalili was not influenced by the factors of time, and he remained an inspiration to writers and artists, always inciting their brothers to creativity, as Naguib Mahfouz wrote, his novel \
