Pyramids of Giza, Sphinx, National Museum of Egypt, and Valley of Kings All of these attractions are in Cairo, but if you want to see more, I recommend flying to Luxor and Aswan to see Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Hatshepsut's Temple (Deir el-Bahari), and others.
 

The Philae Temple was built long ago to honor a special goddess named Isis. It is an ancient and interesting place with a lot of history.
