About
Craftsmen shape and finish pieces in the open workshop; visitors can watch and try a simple piece themselves.
It is about a 4-minute walk from the main plateau gate, on Mena House Lane. Run by the same family since 1991, 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.
