Egypt Unveils Major Overhaul of Giza Pyramids Area, Highlighting New Entrance, Enhanced Tourist Services
Ahmed Emam Egypt's Cabinet Information and Decision Support Center (IDSC) has released a series of videos showcasing the full-scale development of the Giza Pyramids archaeological zone, including a major relocation of the main entrance to the site and significant upgrades to tourist services. In the video series published across social media platforms, Ashraf Mohie El-Din Mohamed, Director General of the Giza and Pyramid Antiquities, emphasized that the Giza Pyramids are Egypt's most important tourist destination. To preserve and enhance this iconic site, a comprehensive development project was launched. Originally initiated in 2009 with an expected completion in 2012, the project faced delays due to political unrest and was later resumed in 2016. It has now been completed and is set to officially open on April 1. One of the most notable changes is the relocation of the main entrance from its current position near the Mena House Hotel to a new access point on the Fayoum–Oases Road. A spacious parking area has been built to accommodate all cars and tour buses. Multiple ticketing options will be available—including online booking, self-service kiosks, and conventional ticket windows. Special windows and accessible pathways have been created for visitors with disabilities. Upon entry, visitors will pass through a large hall inside the newly constructed Visitor Center, which features a scale model of the pyramids and surrounding tombs. Guests will also be offered a five-minute film narrated by actor Kevin Costner, providing an overview of the site's rich history. From there, they will board the first of several electric buses designed to reduce noise pollution and harmful emissions within the archaeological zone. The project also includes a sustainable rotation system for pyramid and tomb access. Two pyramids will be open to the public at a time while the third undergoes maintenance. Similarly, tombs will be alternated between visitation and restoration to preserve their integrity and ensure a high-quality experience for future visitors. As part of the trial phase launching in April, the old entrance will be permanently closed and tourists will begin entering exclusively through the new Fayoum gate. Seven electric shuttle stations will connect key areas of the heritage site. A specially designated area has also been established for camel and horse rides, with new training programs introduced for handlers to improve interactions with tourists. The Giza Pyramids site is now poised to welcome visitors in a modern, organized, and environmentally conscious way—honoring its historical significance while embracing sustainable tourism. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Videos & Features Bouchra Dahlab Crowned Miss Arab World 2025 ..
