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 Al-Ahram Street. Run by the same family since 1978, 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

49 Al-Ahram Street, Nazlet El-Semman, Giza

Finding the entrance

About 10 minutes on foot from the main plateau gate. Ask for "Sandstone" — most shopkeepers on Al-Ahram Street know it.

This pin is accurate to roughly 84 m. It marks the area, not a doorway.

Placed on the map by an editor · ±84 m

Straight-line distance. The walk may be longer — the direct line can cross a wall or a fenced area.
