The Egyptian Tourism Promotion Authority honored international actress Claudia Cardinale at the foot of the Pyramids and presented her with a souvenir, as part of the authority's strategy of making use of the presence of celebrities in Egypt to send the world messages of reassurance about the safety of the tourist destination, to promote it effectively and influentially, and to maximize the benefit of such positive events in improving the image of the Egyptian tourist destination.
For her part, the Italian actress expressed her happiness at being in Egypt, stressing that she will visit Egypt again because of her great love for it.
It is worth noting that Italian international star Claudia Cardinale took part in the opening of the 37th Cairo International Film Festival and is also taking part in the festival's events after winning the "Faten Hamama" honorary award for her artistic work.
