Welcome to Cairo!

Welcome to Cairo! Cairo is located on the Nile river and is a very busy city with lots to do and see! One attraction to do in this city is to visit the Egyptian Museum. This museum has some of the world's greatest collection of  ancient Egyptian artifacts. It's home to some of the greatest pharaohs and the treasures of King Tut. Also in  the city of Cairo you can visit ancient Christian Churches and experience the narrow streets of the Coptic Quarter. If you travel a little west of Cairo to Giza you will find The Three Great Pyramids and the Sphinx. These pyramids were once one of the Seven Wonders  on the Ancient World and they are the only "wonder" still in existence! To travel to any of these, you want to go early, to beat the crowds and heat that follow later in the day!
