Egypt is not just about pyramids. You can visit the Egyptian Museum in Cairo to see ancient artifacts or sail on the Nile River with a felucca (traditional sailboat).

Egypt is a predominantly Muslim country, so when entering mosques or other sacred sites, it is recommended to dress modestly by covering your arms and legs. Women are also advised to cover their hair with a headscarf.

Before entering a mosque, remove your shoes as a sign of respect. Typically, there are separate areas for men and women in sacred places.

Absolutely! You can bring back various types of souvenirs from Egypt, such as miniature pyramid figurines, ancient cat statues (Bastet), and scarab beetles.

Always be sure to haggle when shopping in traditional markets to get the best prices.

Egypt hosts numerous festivals and celebrations. One well-known event is "Moulid," a celebration of the birth of a revered Islamic figure. Here, you can witness various attractions like dance performances, music, and night markets.
