To delve deeper into the historical remembrances, visit the Egyptian Museum full of artifacts, such as the treasure trove of Tutankhamun. The bustling streets of Cairo will witness how you dine on its vibrant energy, from the historic Khan El Khalili bazaar to the jaw-dropping Islamic and Coptic landmarks as they make up Egypt's diverse past.
