After years of anticipation, the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) beside the Pyramids of Giza is finally opening. Over 100,000 artifacts, including the treasures of Pharaoh Tutankhamun, are now on display. The museum, which has been under construction for over a decade, is expected to become a major tourist attraction and a significant cultural landmark.
President of Egypt, Anwar Sadat, announced the opening of this museum several years ago as a way to preserve and showcase Egypt’s rich historical heritage. The museum’s collection includes not only the famous treasures of Tutankhamun but also artifacts from other dynasties and ancient periods. Visitors can explore exhibits that include sculptures, pottery, jewelry, and other artifacts that give insight into ancient Egyptian life.
The opening of the museum has been celebrated by both locals and international tourists. The museum is located in a secure and well-protected area, and visitors are required to pass through security checks before entering. The museum’s management has also implemented a variety of measures to ensure that the artifacts are displayed safely and properly. Overall, the Grand Egyptian Museum is set to become one of the most significant cultural institutions in the world.
