About

The terrace facing the Sphinx where most visitors take their first photo; it is quietest in the first hour after opening.

It is about a 10-minute walk from the main plateau gate, on Nazlet El-Semman Road. Run by the same family since 2013, 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.
