The day starts with an eye-opening excursion of the Tuna El-Gebel necropolis whose burial ground belonged to the ancient elite of Egypt. Consist of the catacombs, the fabulous wall paintings in the tomb of Petosiris, and still-visible boundary stelae that once defined the sacred precinct of the city, all being the highlights of the site. Next stop is Ashmunein (Hermopolis), the very otherworldly Ancient city and cradle of such iconic gods like Thoth, the god of wisdom and writing and thus the artisanship would also be reflected by the fascinating archaeological remains.
