The Great Pyramids
You can't come to Egypt and not visit the pyramids. They are as vast and imposing as they were when they were built more than 4 millennia ago, and are the icons most associated with Egypt. The Egyptian pyramids are not only a huge architectural accomplishment, but also a source of imaginative thought for over three thousand years. The Great Pyramids of Giza are some of the most famous manmade objects in the world and the only original "Wonder of the Ancient World" that still survives.
The Nile River
The Nile is the heart of the ancient and modern Egypt, and the mere mention of the name evokes images of pyramids, great temples, fantastic tales of mummies, and wondrous treasures. But to the people of Egypt, both ancient and modern, the Nile is life itself. For thousands of years, the river has made life possible for millions of people and animals, and has shaped the culture we are only beginning to understand. The world's longest river flows south to north for about 4,000 miles from East Africa to the Mediterranean.
