Remainder of the day at leisure. If you arrive early, a self-guided tour is recommended to discover this marvelous city, where past and present intertwine and where you will find evidence of more than 2.000 years of history where the cultures of Islam, Coptic Christianity, and Judaism have mingled and continue to merge. Overnight stay.

This pyramid currently stands 137 meters tall (originally 146 meters), and 2,5 million stone blocks were used in its construction.
