Egypt-Trip of a Lifetime

i had the opportunity to visit Egypt recently. it was the best trip of my life. I took over 550 pics but here are a few.
Sakkara the oldest pyramid. Khufu was the pharoah and it was around 2700 BC

Abu Simbel. this was rebuilt after the Aswan Dam became a project. the sun hits the 3 Gods exactly as it was originally built

Cairo Museum mummy

Climbing inside the Great Pyramid






The cranky Camel from Cairo

@akshamaeh7331 i don't think there are secret services in Egypt but they started with the top pyramid called Saqqara as their template and developed a better plan as they went.
@akindheart really? Sakkara? Some people think they used a water floating system to get the block up there. i think its so mysteroise how we cant build like that today.. Isnt it crazy how at the very top it is soo smooth and perfect. then near the bottom its crumbling i heard its because they reused the easier to reach blocks on other things. I hear it used to have a gold tip. And used to conduct electricity?! They even found a copper wiring.
