The world's largest archaeological museum, beside the Pyramids of Giza.أكبر متحف أثري في العالم بجوار أهرامات الجيزة
The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) is the largest archaeological museum in the world, sitting on the Giza Plateau within sight of the Pyramids.
Its centrepiece is the complete Tutankhamun collection — around 5,000 artifacts displayed together for the first time — alongside a towering atrium, the Grand Staircase, and the hanging obelisk of Ramses II.
