EGYPT
Egypt is a country in North Africa.

In Egypt you can go to view of the Pyramids of Egypt. They are among the largest structures ever built and constitute one of the most potent and enduring symbols of Ancient Egyptian civilization.

A view of the pyramids at Giza from the plateau to the south of the complex. From right to left are the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre and the Pyramid of Menkaure. The three smaller pyramids in the foreground are associated with Menkaure's pyramid.

Egypt is a good place to dive or snorkel.
The Brothers are a pair of tiny islands. Actually they are the exposed tips of two massive reef pillars that rise from the abyssal depths. They are the only significant reefs in the area, and as such act as a magnet for any pelagic and reef fishes. Washed as they are by the full force of open-sea currents, they support an incredible dense and diverse coral population, with almost overwhelmingly profuse soft coral growth on all sides.
