2. The Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, located in Alexandria, are one of the most important archaeological sites in Egypt. Built in the 2nd century AD, they served as a family tomb during the Roman period and were later expanded. The site features a spiral staircase, funeral banquet hall (triclinium), and beautifully carved sarcophagi and statues that blend Egyptian gods, Roman dress, and Greek art. The carvings show gods like Anubis dressed as Roman soldiers, reflecting the cultural fusion of the time. Rediscovered in 1900 when a donkey fell into the shaft, the catacombs were later restored. Today, they attract tourists for their unique mix of architecture, history, and mystery.

3. Pompey's Pillar is a famous Roman monument in Alexandria, Egypt. It stands about 26.85 meters (88 feet) tall and was built in 297 AD to honor Emperor Diocletian for saving the city during a rebellion. Despite its name, it has nothing to do with Pompey the Great. The pillar is made of red granite from Aswan and is one of the largest ancient monoliths still standing. It was once part of a grand temple known as the Serapeum, dedicated to the Greco-Egyptian god Serapis. Today, it’s one of Alexandria’s top landmarks, offering insight into the city’s Roman history.

About Giza

Giza, on the edge of Cairo, is home to the Great Pyramid, the Sphinx and a desert plateau that has drawn travellers for thousands of years.

The plateau holds three great pyramids, built for the pharaohs Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, along with smaller queens' pyramids and rows of nobles' tombs. The Great Pyramid of Khufu is the last of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still standing, and the Great Sphinx keeps watch below, carved from the bedrock beside Khafre's valley temple.

Top-ranked sights in Giza: Sphinx (Great Sphinx of Giza), Giza Pyramids, Great Pyramid of Giza (Khufu Pyramid).
