About

Hand-painted papyrus with a short demonstration of how the sheets are made from the reed.

It is about a 8-minute walk from the Grand Egyptian Museum road, on Sphinx Square. Run by the same family since 1992, 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.
