Cairo Travel Guide: Must-Visit Attractions

## Must-Visit Attractions in Cairo During your trip to Cairo, the Egyptian Museum is undoubtedly the first destination you should visit. This museum houses a vast collection of precious ancient Egyptian artifacts, especially the treasures of Tutankhamun, offering a profound glimpse into the splendor of ancient civilization. Although the interior design of the museum may appear slightly outdated, each exhibit tells a story of long-standing history. Joining a guided tour or a docent-led group is highly recommended, as it allows you to gain deeper insights into the stories behind each artifact and enrich your cultural experience. ## The Cave Church Next, we arrive at the Cave Church (Saint Simon Church), a tranquil haven hidden within the bustling city. Built within a rocky cave, this church features a unique architectural style and vivid interior murals that create a mysterious and sacred atmosphere. The murals depict various religious stories, evoking a sense of faith and showcasing the charm of art. ## The Citadel of Saladin Finally, we reach the Citadel of Saladin, a magnificent ancient fortress overlooking the entire Cairo cityscape. Within the citadel, the Muhammad Ali Mosque is renowned for its spectacular domes and exquisite decorations. Here, you can enjoy a panoramic view of Cairo, as if stepping into a cinematic scene, leaving you utterly captivated. Cairo is the first destination of my journey through Egypt. I will continue to share other exciting experiences in Egypt in the future. Let’s explore this ancient and mysterious land together!
