It's not a dream! To sit and look at the Sphinx and the three pyramids is incredible. It can be said that this life is complete with a country that I never expected to see the view of the important pyramids. And the Sphinx, one of the symbols that we will immediately think of Egypt when we see it, is like the logo of Egypt. The secret to visiting one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world, Khufu Pyramid, is to choose a place to stay that is close, as close as possible. You can sit and look at the Sphinx since the sun sets. Choose to stay in the area behind the Pyramid. There will be many accommodations with a beautiful view like this. Luckily, I got to sit and watch the light, color, and sound show on the balcony in front of the room. I didn't have to buy an entrance ticket. I stayed in this area for 2 nights. * First day When you arrive, go to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM). After the trip, come back to watch the sunset on the balcony of the room. The light is very beautiful. * Second day I walked around the Pyramid since the door opened. Early in the morning, the secret to getting beautiful pictures without people is to hurry to take pictures at the Sphinx first. Then walk to all 3 pyramids. I walked around all the pyramids by myself. Didn't take any car at all. Walked around and cut through everything. Let me tell you, I'm still fascinated with Egypt.... Whoever said it was scary, I can tell you it's not scary. It's a safe country. The only thing you need to have is don't talk to or believe people you don't know because they will try to make you buy things or ask you to join activities until you have to pay for the trip yourself. If you travel by yourself and don't trust anyone, this problem will be gone... #Sphix #Egypt #pyramid #pyramidofgiza #egyptianmuseum #cairo_egypt #travelblogger #egypttravel #photo #cairo #travelabroad #withmyshutter #tripพาบินขอภพปีใหม่

Check in another point in Cairo, Egypt 📍 Mohammad Ali Mosque Don't miss it either, the most famous mosque in Egypt. This is the largest and tallest mosque in Cairo. The highlight of the Mohammad Ali Mosque is its decoration that combines the Greek era. Because it was designed by a Greek architect, the style and pattern of the mosque are beautifully blended in two eras. The long construction period of 18 years has made it a mosque that has been talked about and talked about for a long time. Making the Mohammad Ali Mosque another important landmark in Cairo that you can't miss. Inside, it is also outstanding with the Minaret or prayer hall, which is a tall octagonal pillar that you must not miss. For those who like taking pictures, there are beautiful corners both inside and outside the mosque. I saw many girls of many nationalities dressed up to take pictures and check in. The interior of the mosque is decorated with curved lamps and beautiful patterns on the ceiling of the hall. It may look old and dusty, but overall, you must come. Because it is another important place that you must visit.

9 Pyramids Lounge 📍 Pin it for a restaurant with a million-dollar view in Giza of pyramids. When coming to see the beauty and history of the pharaohs and pyramids, it is one of the Dream Destinations for many people. And UNESCO has registered it as a world heritage site. And it is one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world. When you have paid for the entrance fee to the Pyramid, plan with the 9 Pyramids Lounge restaurant. 9 Pyramids Lounge is located in the interior of Giza of Pyramid. The restaurant area is next to the Panoramic View point. For dining, you must book a table in advance via the website or WhatsApp (I will put the ID under the post). The price of the restaurant is not expensive at all. The food is served during the morning, lunch and afternoon. The restaurant closes at 4:00 p.m. Anyone who wants to ride a camel or a horse can do so (negotiate the price well!!!). As for me, I had a lot of time. Walked around inside and walked around until I reached the restaurant. Plus, I walked to the Panoramic View Points. Let me tell you, I was very satisfied with the view. The pyramids are very beautiful. Traveling to Egypt this time was the most worthwhile in my life. Because this place has a long history.... #9pyramid #pyramid #pyramidgame #Egypt #travelblogger #pharaoh #photo #luxor #cairo #wintertravel

Siwa is an Oasis city in Egypt that’s built around many underwater springs. There so much to do here from picnics in the desert, historical sights, cultural sights, hot spring spas, salt water lakes (where you can float so easily), salt caves, and Cleopatra’s pool that’s 26ft deep. You will have a blast here. I spent 3 days here and wish I could stay an extra day. Be mindful that the flies here are a persistent breed and lots of mosquitos, so bring long sleeves and pants. Be sure to check out the old fort and the mountain of the dead. They also have olive jam, which is very interesting to try. #Siwaoasis #siwa #egypt #Eqyptexperiences #Egyptcampingtrips #cairo

Cairo is filled with so much in one city ! Of course you need to see the great #Pyramids of Giza ! Book a small hotel across from them for the best view. I stayed at the Egypt pyramids Inn and enjoyed my stay. Make sure you have a local guide. They can customize much more for you and give you a more authentic experience. The new museum was really cool ! Be aware that as a tourist many of locals will invite you to shop, be clear about what you interested in buying so you don’t waste time being haggled into shopping. I went to the local perfume and oil shop and it was very nice but very expensive FYI. Overall there no place like Cairo ! #pyramidsofgiza #Cairo #egypt #Kingtut #historicallandmarks #solotravel

I highly recommend going to the pyramids! They are so much better in person than in the photo! I went with a guide and he gave me such great insight on the history of the pyramids. I went to the pyramids and rode a camel around, one thing with the camels. Please make sure you find a place that takes care of them! Some people don’t care about the camels health. I did research before picking the company. My tour guide had a camel that was part of his family and was deeply cared for. One giant thing I recommend not doing: anything with a horse!! They treat the camels okay but they don’t really care for the horses. They are worked to hard and given barely any rest! #egypt #camels #cairo
