The great Pharaoh Tutankhamun
Tutankhamun, what an exiting name, the legendary mummy with the golden mask and the massive treasures found in his tomb by Carter.
The exhibition of king Tut can be seen at Cairo national museum as now before it will be moved and at display in the new grand museum in Giza.(another post for this grand place)
National Egyptian museum located in a beautiful pink building at Tahir square in central Cairo hosts some of the biggest collection of Egyptian treasures as it should be, and I also believe that all worlds museum should give back Egypt items that was stolen from here, it belongs to Egypt and Egyptian people, but at the same time when you visit this pink marvel you realize how dirty, not maintained and unorganized this place is, its Egypt in a nut shell, they don't care about anything, way of thinking and way of doing, its very sad to see and not nice at all, but some of Tuts items are on display and should not be missed.
On the other hand the 3D Tut extravaganza at the partly opened grand museum is worth a visit, it explains very well king Tuts voyage in life and afterlife, please book a guide there, its so mush better and worth it.

Built for eternity with Ramses, Thut and the boys part 1
Egypt, the land of mystery, history, mummy's, Ramses the great and pyramids how cool isn't this?! I have now been slightly over a year in Cairo and slowly starting to understand this culture, religion and Egyptians, but will for sure never EVER not even close understand it fully, this is not possible as a non Egyptian with different values in life to do.
I have here around 150 staff working for me and Its extremely challenging especially that non have any culinary degree or proper training, some started 20 years ago in dish wash and now runs a kitchen as sous-chef ! only in Africa BTW any title is not given for hard work or knowledge here, its purely for next raised paycheck, that's all, even if you have no clue of what you are doing you will have a title as CDP, S-C or whatever, I thought that I was the luckiest guy ever when I came and saw that I have 12 S-C and 18 CDP, wow this should be a pace of cake, but NNOOO WAY habibi, so not true at all, and what a mistake to believe.
Egyptian men are strange, they try to act masculine but they cant, they try to be clever, but they are not, only spoiled bratts where they women takes care of them and also their mother, they are not able do do anything regarding the household as we non Egyptians can do and are finding as normal.
talking about sex, smoking shisha and drinking tea is how the perfect man spend his time here with his habibis in coffee shops and taverns and i am sure that there is a reason why alcohol and drugs is consider haram, or this all would go south very fast, I think that there was a clever guy long time ago who realized that his people was not the most clever.
pathetic, childish and afraid of woman empowerment and then they try to tell me that ~we actually build the pyramids~ wich is not true at all BTW but this is for some other time
