Section 189 Wildfires can't burn

Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo saw the burnt office of the Mubarak government’s Interior Ministry next to the museum. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo saw the final struggle of a regime from this building. According to Simon Yam, Egypt’s tour guides united to protect the Egyptian Museum during the conflict, because it exhibited not only the history of ancient Egypt, but also the treasure of world civilization.

Egyptian museums have three floors. If you want to read them carefully and understand the stories, it will take at least a week, and two hours to know only a little bit of the fur.

There are some things to see in the museum: Tutankhamun's burial objects and famous pure gold masks. Tutankhamun's tomb is the most complete tomb that has not been visited by tomb robbers. His mummy is still in the Valley of the Kings near Luxor. The museum displays various things that pharaohs have used or buried with them before.

Many of them were dug out from the pyramids or the valley of the kings. The shoes that Pharaoh wore, chairs that he sat and beds he slept in, and the hobbies and physical condition of the Pharaoh can also be seen from these things.

The exquisiteness of many burial objects is beyond the reach of modern craftsmanship. Being able to see and get close to the daily necessities and utensils used by this young pharaoh who had been around for more than 3,000 years is enough to make Yun Luo excited for a long time...

After visiting the main ancient Egyptian exhibition hall, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo visited the mummy hall at their own expense. It is said that the mummies lying in the British Museum were all wrapped in layers, and visitors could not see their true faces. In the Egyptian Museum, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo actually saw so many "true faces" of pharaohs.

I suddenly felt that the 100 pounds were worth it. There was no tour guide here to explain it. Each mummy had an English sign hanging next to it, which read it with a story about the life of the pharaoh and the mummy. After reading it, I could really feel the ultimate psychology of the ancient Egyptians pursuing eternal life and seeking resurrection.

It was already noon to say goodbye to the Egyptian Museum. It was so happy to eat Chinese food abroad. Many extremely ordinary dishes in China could be eaten with relish. After rushing to the focus of this Egypt tour - the Pyramid. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo will have an afternoon to have fun and take photos at the Pyramids and Sphinx.

The ticket to enter the pyramid scenic area is mainly based on the pyramid of Giza. When Yun Luo was not seeing the pyramid, he remembered the scene of great destruction that he saw in Transformers 2 before. When he saw that the entity was actually safe and sound, he still felt that he was finally at ease.

There are a lot of small vendors in the scenic area, and they will be entangled if you are not careful. The Egyptian vendors have a very stiff way of thinking. Whether they are guiding you to take photos and pull you to tip. Or holding real goods in your hands, it is actually thankless, but they are a little better than some vendors in China.

We are quite friendly to Chinese people. If we don’t buy them, we won’t scold you. Even if we scold you, we won’t understand. Let them go. But you really have to be careful when you get money here. Sometimes it’s common to rob blatantly.

In the end, Yun Luo didn't even bring his bag. He was penniless and had no money to grab. But along the way, he heard the hawking of "onedollar" on both sides, so "onedollar" became a recognized secret code in Nalan Shiqi and Yun Luo's team. After that, Nalan Shiqi and Yun Luo would look at each other and smile.

It is easy to realize your insignificance in front of the pyramid, especially when you observe it from a close distance, and you feel it is even more magnificent. Although many stones have gradually weathered after thousands of years of wind and rain, you can still vaguely feel the magnificence of the first construction. I really like foreign attractions, whether it is the Louvre.

There are no annoying fences in museums or pyramids. They can allow tourists to personally get in touch with cultural relics and history. Many tourists are freely climbing the pyramids, making people feel that they are really in ancient Egypt thousands of years ago...

The pyramids constantly change their tones in the sun. When the sun is brightest, it is also the most beautiful time for the pyramids. Gold is the favorite color of the ancient Egyptians. They used such a magnificent pyramid to commemorate the eternal life of the Pharaoh.

Pass to enter the pyramid, due to time constraints, Nalan Seqi and Yunluo only entered the smaller pyramid to visit, but failed to enter the Great Pyramid to absorb energy on the Pharaoh's spiritual bed.

The corridor to the tomb is very narrow, with no remaining murals and burial objects inside, and only a small part is open. The ticket for 30 GBP is really expensive, but since you are here, don't miss any opportunity to have close contact with the Pharaoh.

In fact, camels can really look cute from a certain angle, but I personally feel that the camels here are not as beautiful as they are. There are many camel vendors around the pyramid, and the prices are different. They even charge tips when they see a group photo. I really don’t dare to ride camels nearby. Let’s try it when I go back later.

In 2610 BC, Pharaoh Khufu came here to inspect his tomb, the pyramid, which was about to be completed. Khufu found a huge rock left on the quarry.

Khufu immediately ordered the stonemasons to carve a sphinx according to his face. It is said that the sphinx was carved according to the shape of Sphinx. In fact, the sphinx was not only available in Cairo, Egypt. It was just that the largest and oldest in Cairo.

The Sphinx is on the other side of the pyramid. I know that she has experienced so many things. To some extent, she has become a symbol of ancient Egypt. She is really impressed by her real approach to Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo. Her existence confirms many classic legends and leaves many mysterious mysteries.

At the best shooting point closest to the Sphinx, there are many Egyptian children teaching tourists how to take photos and earn tips. There are many interesting ways to take photos, but to take good photos, you still have to follow your own feelings and leave the best and most natural moments.

Some temple ruins are spread around these famous attractions. Although they are now dilapidated, the cornerstones still stand firmly. I have to admire the superb skills of ancient craftsmen again.

I also admire their wisdom and know how to use the most reliable stone to build buildings. In ancient China, most of them were wooden buildings, so almost never survived. It was a big regret.

Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo reluctantly bid farewell to Giza and the pyramid. On the way back to the hotel, Yunluo was observing every expression in Cairo. The children waved and smiled enthusiastically at Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo. The vendors on the roadside stopped their work to say hello to Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo.

There are also the simple and sincere smiles of passers-by... All of this deeply touched Yunluo. When meeting locals in other countries I have visited, they can only see their polite smiles at most. In Egypt, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo felt the most innocent and simple welcome and love. Some people think that Yunluo's feeling is an illusion caused by superiority.

But Yunluo didn't think that those Mona Lisa-like smiles were a kind of pride hidden under the sense of superiority, but the Egyptians' smiles were different, not that elegant, but absolutely pure.

Before leaving Egypt, you should take a good look at their markets and people. Passion is contagious. They gave Yun Luo, which also aroused Yun Luo's great interest. Nalan Shiqi and Yun Luo had the most contact with the Egyptians on this last day.

The small passenger motorcycle on the street is very interesting, and it looks like a taxi. It is said that although there are stations for Egypt, it never stops. Even if you are an old man in your seventies or a few years old, you have to chase Yunluo and jump up and down. For foreigners who are not familiar with the situation here, as long as you know how to bargain, you may not be as good as these small rentals when you take a big public.

When passing by a vegetable market, the uncle selling fish at the door kept calling Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo to buy things. He was very enthusiastic, but unfortunately Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo had no time. Otherwise, the vegetable market would be an important base for peeking into a city life.

All the shopping trips of Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were left on the last day of the tour. After visiting the fragrance and papyrus shop, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo came to Khan Harry Market, which is a scenic spot and a shopping spot. It has a history of 800 years and is a famous Arab trading center.

The main building of the market is similar to a mosque. The interior structure is exquisite. Seeing this, Yunluo inexplicably remembered the Grand Bazaar he had visited.

Khan Harry Market is similar to the small commodity wholesale markets of Nalan Seqi and Yunluo. According to the tour guide, many of the products sold in it come from, and almost all the merchants here speak a little Chinese. But it is not popular enough. Although some normal communication is fine, most of them are still more convenient to communicate in English.

This is a paradise for buying handicrafts and Egyptian tourist souvenirs, but they both need to be able to bargain. Yunluo has never learned this profound skill, but he really wants to buy some specialties and souvenirs, so he can only be slaughtered obediently.

Since most Arab women don’t have to work, the owners of the store are almost all handsome guys. Although you should not miss it when you pass by, the excessive enthusiasm still makes Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo feel a little scared. They hurriedly walked through two alleys and were pulled into the store several times.

Fortunately, they wouldn't be angry if they insisted on not buying it. They still chatted with Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo enthusiastically, which shows that the Egyptians are very friendly to the Chinese.

Before leaving the market, be sure to taste Egyptian juice, which is rich in flesh and vitamins. After drinking it, I immediately feel that the so-called freshly squeezed juices in China are so difficult to drink and too unpalatable! This mango juice is not only not dry or astringent, but also particularly sweet and quite refreshing. This is the real freshly squeezed juice.

During the day of traveling, I thought that taking a bus would take all the time, but I didn’t expect that the same was true for the plane. I went to the airport, waited for the plane, took a plane, got off the plane, and then returned to the city. The time was almost spent on the road. However, on this day, Nalan Seqi and Yunluo left Egypt at noon, and in the afternoon, the Egyptian airport and customs personnel went on strike together.

After arriving in Istanbul, I learned that many Chinese tourists were stranded at Egyptian airports and could not return home. I felt very glad that Nalan Seqi and Yunluo were really lucky. Otherwise, not only would the subsequent itinerary have to be cancelled, but I would also have to spend a lot of time at the airport. You should know that every minute of traveling abroad is very expensive.

On the way to the airport, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo saw many stalls similar to domestic breakfast projects. Muslims do have fewer food varieties due to religious reasons, but they have put a lot of effort into spices to make the same thing produce different flavors, so they use this to improve the food.

It doesn't taste the same every day, and it feels too boring. In Egypt and Turkey, nuts are important foods for them, probably because these are good flavors. The prices of things sold at Egypt airports are quite reliable, but they have to be consumed in US dollars. If you exchange too much of the Egyptian pound, it is indeed difficult to use them here.

There is a shoe cabinet at the prayer room at the Egyptian airport. At first, Yunluo thought it was a place similar to a gym. During the prayer time, religious music would be heard. Staff took turns to pray, and men and women separated, which was similar to mosques. This is also a characteristic public setting that only Islamic countries have.

After three days of journey, Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo reluctantly left Egypt and continued to Istanbul and began the Asia-Europe journey of Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo. During the tour of Egypt, Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo not only marveled at the glory of ancient civilizations and appreciated the spectacular beauty that they had longed for since childhood.

The biggest gain is that you can get close to the enthusiastic Egyptians, complete your trip under their various attention, and carefully understand their nation and religion. Many people like to plan travel as a way to travel and relax, and every time you travel through Yunluo is not only to relax.

And they all hope to get something from it. Only by constantly exploring and discovering can we truly experience the joy of travel. In order to get more fun, Nalan Seqi and Yunluo came here, Egypt, everything began from now on...

Ottoman Turkey and Istanbul, these names were familiar before. It was not until later that I learned that Ankara is the capital of Turkey. Istanbul's reputation is due to its unparalleled strategic geographical location, spanning Asia and Europe. It is precisely because of this that Nalan Seqi and Yunluo have a lot of time travel.

As soon as I came to Turkey from Egypt, located in Africa, I kept traveling between Asia and Europe. What a great value route. In just a few days, I visited three continents and greatly enriched Yunluo's travel experience.

Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo continued to take Turkish Airlines flights to Istanbul, and from Egypt covered with yellow sand to lush Turkey, they did have a very different feeling.
