The huge legacy of pharaonic heritage is divided all over different sites and need to be shown in one place. Different eras of ancient Egypt monuments and diverse antiques from the ancient kingdom periods will be presented within a single building which aims to emphasize the inherited art from our ancestors. Since art was a denominator of the multiple eras and periods, Egypt has been through, the museum mission is to document and conserve these masterpieces in a place that could be as a reference to our history for visitor from all over the world. Travel to Egypt will make sure to include a visit to the grand Egyptian museum in most of Egypt Tours and Cairo layover tours once it opens. So, stay tuned.
