What’s Up with Egypt? 🇪🇬
Share

Egypt is one of the few destinations that cannot be matched, cannot be compared to any other place.

More than 5000 years of history and a huge legacy of artifacts, art, and architecture make it a place that everyone should visit if they have a chance. After all, the ancient Egyptians left an astounding legacy of a highly advanced culture.

You also know a lot about Egypt, even if you’ve never been. Who can say that they don’t know a tiny bit about the pyramids?

For most people, though, Egypt is an intimidating destination in a complicated part of the world that can be volatile. Especially in current times, with a war raging just over the border, you may wonder, what’s up with Egypt?

There is a lot going on. It’s hard to explain it all, but a very, very basic, general summary follows. By the way, I am not a political expert, but am aiming to look at this through the lens of travel.
