Description

The Grand Egyptian Museum is the world's largest museum dedicated to a single civilization. The collection consisting of King Tut's tomb and tens of thousands of other rare and unique archaeological finds has found a new home in a museum built on the plateau of the pyramids of Giza. This highly complex and difficult-to-construct building bears the signature of ORASCOM , BESIX & AL-MASA and is expected to become a centre for culture and education, encouraging enthusiasm about Egypt's hystory. This colossal building will house 50,000 antiquities, some of which have never before been shown in public.
