If you are interested in visiting the world’s most important tourist attractions, monuments of ancient civilizations are a priority. The importance of ancient civilizations is not only because their temples, tombs, cities and organs are considered unique masterpieces of archeology; Rather, it is because these works, instead of the remaining, form our identity. Here are some of the seven attractions of the ancient world that you must visit someday. (National Geographic)
The pyramids of Giza; Egypt
The confrontation of ancient culture and modernity is the most important issue that affects Egyptian tourists. On the one hand, the Great Khufu Pyramid, from the 5th century BC and its two side pyramids in the desert; On the other hand, the expansion of the city of Giza focuses on its attention. That is why the statue of Abu al -Wahul is staring at the luxurious parking lot. The important thing to visit the Giza Plateau in the west of the Nile and outside of Cairo is to book a tourist guide to your hotel. This way you will be safe from the harassment of the guides and you will hear the history of the dynasty as a serial podcast for 5 years.

If you have no problem with closed locations, make sure your ticket includes entering the big pyramid. Tickets are sold at the entrance to the ancient site or online. If you go to the enclosure at 9:30 am, the weather is cooler and the environment is more secluded. You can then seek refuge in the Grand Museum of Egypt at noon, which is adjacent to the courtyard.
Chichnon Eitsa; Mexico
