Cairo|Those who drink from the Nile will return to Egypt
Time leaves behind legends, but never answers. Standing before the ancient Egyptian civilization of four thousand years, I finally fulfilled my obsession with the pyramids before turning thirty. 🏜️✨ ▪️ 2-Day Cairo Itinerary Day 1: 🌅 Morning 📍 Pyramids of Giza & Sphinx The Giza Pyramid Complex (opens at 7:00 am) 🐫 Ride a camel early in the morning—it’s cooler! Bargain hard—aim for 1/3 of the initial price! 💬 ⚠️ Watch out for forced photo charges 📸, "guide" fees, and all kinds of tricks. 🕛 Afternoon: Egyptian Museum 📍 The Egyptian Museum 🕑 9:00 am - 5:00 pm 🎫 Entrance: 450 EGP for adults (card only, no cash 💳) 💼 Luggage can be stored in a booth outside (no AC inside—bring a mini fan 😅). 🏺 The museum has two floors: first floor arranged by era, second by theme. 🗣️ Hire a guide at the entrance or find a local Egyptian student who speaks Chinese. Day 2: 🏰 Morning: Salahuddin Citadel 📍 Saladin Citadel 🎫 Entrance: 550 EGP (student discount 50%! No cash ❌) ⏳ Suggested visit: 1.5 - 2 hours 🌆 Closes at 5 pm, but least crowded after . 🌇 Afternoon: 📍 Khan El Khalili Market Many complain about it, but your experience is what matters ✨. 🛍️ Built in the 14th century, it’s one of Egypt’s oldest markets—like a Egyptian version of Yiwu 😄. 💡 Go around dusk when the lights turn on —you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into One Thousand and One Nights! 🌙 #EgyptTravel #Cairo #Pyramids #EgyptianMuseum #ExploreEgypt #KhanElKhalili #Sphinx #CairoTourism 🌍📸✨
