The Grand Egyptian Museum will open a new phase of its trial operations to visitors tomorrow, including its main exhibition galleries, but excluding the Tutankhamun galleries and King Khufu’s Boat Museum.
TravelYalla News took a special tour inside the museum to photograph its 12 main galleries. They contain around 12,000 artefacts, ranging from small objects to monumental pieces, telling the story of Egyptian civilisation from prehistory and the Predynastic Period through the Late Period and the Graeco-Roman era. The tour also included an interview with Dr Hussein Kamal, Director General of the museum’s Conservation Centre.
TravelYalla News takes enthusiasts of Egyptian antiquities through the Grand Hall and Grand Staircase, past a magnificent view of the Pyramids, the enduring symbols of Egyptian civilisation, and into the exhibition galleries, inspiring curiosity and a desire to visit.
After this unique panorama of the three Pyramids, visitors enter the main galleries for an unforgettable journey through thousands of years of civilisation and creativity.
