The museum is filled with incredible highlights, including the Tanis Royal Treasures, the monuments of the Pyramid builders, the Akhenaten gallery, and the intricate Middle Kingdom funerary models that show ancient Egyptian life in detail.

As the mosque is an active place of worship, we recommend modest clothing that covers shoulders and knees. Ladies may want to carry a light scarf to cover their hair when entering the prayer hall.
