About
Vases and statues turned from alabaster and basalt, with the carving done in the courtyard.
It is about a 2-minute walk from the Sphinx entrance, on Nazlet El-Semman Road. Run by the same family since 2004, the team is used to welcoming visitors from all over the world and is happy to help in English and Arabic.
This is a fictional demo listing used to show how Giza Spot presents a place.
Getting there
130 Nazlet El-Semman Road, Nazlet El-Semman, Giza
Finding the entrance
About 2 minutes on foot from the Sphinx entrance. Ask for "Desert Rose" — most shopkeepers on Nazlet El-Semman Road know it.
Main entrance Not yet confirmed on site
Look for the green door with a brass sign beside the pharmacy; the shop is up two steps.
Placed on the map by an editor · ±8 m
Straight-line distance. The walk may be longer — the direct line can cross a wall or a fenced area.
