What to do and see in Giza, Giza Governorate: The Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day

May 10, 2022 Concepcion Newsome

Spot a tourist in New York, and chances are you can’t be sure exactly why they’re in town. Broadway? Shopping? A quest to find the world’s best bagel? It’s anyone’s guess. At Giza, though, it’s pretty simple—travelers come here to see the Pyramids of Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. (Editor's note: Our list was compiled before political unrest prompted many countries to issue travel warnings for Egypt. If you're currently planning a trip to Egypt, please consider the risks and monitor your government's travel alerts.)

Golden Bird Bazaar

Reviewed By Louisburg2010

Our tour guide brought us to the Golden Bird Bazaar where we were each able to buy a personalized, one of a kind, hand-made Khartouche. The staff, especially the owner, Chico, were courteous, friendly and helpful in making selections that we will cherish for years to come. There were so many beautiful items to choose from it was hard to decide, but we were able to leave with many wonderful gifts for family and friends back home. Highly recommend this gift shop that has a relaxed and no pressure atmosphere.

Statue of Ramses II

Pharaoh Ramses II statue has stood in a square outside Cairo's main railway station for 50 years. The statue is is 3,200 years old and weighs 83 tons.

Reviewed By DEK_29 - Brisbane, Australia

This colossal statue of Ramses II has been laying in its building for many years while its companion which stood at Midan Ramses has been moved to the new Greater Egyptian Museum where it received some needed cleaning and restoration. Meanwhile, this statue has seen many visitors and is the highlight at Mit Rahina. The craftsmanship in creating this work can be seen in the way the sculptors gave definition to the muscles of the arms and the upper legs. A good wander around this statue at ground level and the viewing platform does't take long but it is well worth the effort of a visit.

Musee de la Barque Solaire

Reviewed By VoyceyV - Knutsford, United Kingdom

This small museum in the shadow of the great pyramid harks back to a time when the Egyptian government invested heavily in tourism and even though this place now looks worse for wear it is still worth every LE you pay to get in. The building itself is a modernist interpretation of the hull of the Pharaohs solar boat. A long, curving, hull-like pod rising from the rocks at the great pyramid's base, it has a retro-modernist cross section which resembles the retro-futurist spacecraft. Within it is a marvel, a full length Nile pleasure boat of a few thousand years vintage in almost perfect condition. Long and curved like the crescent moon, with a re-curve bow and stern it will take you a minute or two to walk its length and marvel at yet another incredible achievement of this great civilisation. Best viewed over the three stories the platforms provide, this small diversion form colossal stonework is worth every coin and irritation to see.
