Carved out of a single ridge of limestone right on the Giza Plateau, this legendary monument features the body of a reclining lion paired with a human head, believed by many to represent Pharaoh Khafre.

About Hurghada

Hurghada is een badplaats aan de Rode Zee op het Egyptische vasteland, geliefd om koraalriffen, warm water, woestijnuitstapjes en ontspannen stranddagen.

De stad strekt zich uit langs de kust, van de oudere wijk El Dahar met zijn soek en vismarkt tot de jachthaven bij Sakkala en de resortstrook in het zuiden. Voor de kust wemelen de riffen en eilanden van de Rode Zee van kleurrijke vissen en koraaltuinen, en soms zie je dolfijnen, waardoor snorkelen en duiken de belangrijkste trekpleisters zijn.
