Egypt, Cairo | The World in a Book: I Turned to the Pyramids

When the pyramids described in textbooks are right beneath your feet, the awe they inspire far surpasses what words on a page can convey. Tickets: Adults: 540 EGP, Students: 270 EGP (Cash not accepted 🙅) Additional tickets required for entry into the pyramids. Opening Hours: 7:00 AM - 4:00 PM Suggested Itinerary: North Gate ➡️ Khufu ➡️ Khafre ➡️ Menkaure ➡️ 6/9 Pyramid Viewpoint ➡️ Sphinx ➡️ Exit via South Gate/North Gate Travel Tips: - Enter through the North Gate, turn right, and take the sandy path by turning left at Khafre for a shorter route. - Arrive early to avoid crowds and enjoy cooler weather. - Bring plenty of water to stay hydrated as you explore. - The 6 Pyramid Viewpoint is quite far; be prepared. - Ignore anyone who says the sandy path is inaccessible. - Carry a portable fan; in summer, cooling patches for both your phone and yourself are recommended. - The area is dusty, so wear long pants and comfortable walking shoes. Photography Spots: - Close-up of Khufu, side view with the temple. - On the sandy path near Khafre/Menkaure. - Panoramic view of the pyramids. - Directly in front of the Sphinx or at the narrow path at the back of the plaza seating area. - Inside the Mina Palace.
