Cairo is the capital and largest city of Egypt, in both Africa and the Middle East. The heart of the modern city has beautiful architecture, and at its core is the unique Egyptian Museum.

Giza, on the west bank of the Nile, is famous for the magnificent pyramids of Cheops, Chephren and Mykerinos and the majestic Sphinx. The Pyramid of Cheops is one of the original seven wonders of the world that still exists.
