Egypt
In the fifth century BC Herodotus wrote of Egypt
that 'nowhere are there so many marvellous
things...nor in the world besides are to be seen so
many things of unspeakable greatness' - and not too
much has changed. The Sphinx, the Nile, ancient
Luxor, the pyramids - Egypt's scope is glorious.
It's not just the Pharaonic monuments that have
drawn travellers to this country since long before
the birth of Christ - it's the legacy of the Greeks,
Romans and early Christians, and the profusion of
art and architecture accumulated from centuries of
successive Islamic dynasties.
Modern Egypt is an amalgam of these legacies and
more, juxtaposed with modern influences. Mud-brick
villages stand beside millennia-old ruins surrounded
by buildings of steel and glass. Some townsfolk
dress in long flowing robes, others in Levis and
Reeboks, and city traffic competes with donkey-drawn
carts and wandering goats. Nowhere are these
contrasts played out so colourfully as in Cairo, a
massive city thronged with people and ringing to the
sound of car horns, ghetto-blasters and muezzins
summoning the faithful to prayer. Egypt isn't all
chaos and clatter, however. It's also a diver's
dream dip, a trek across the sands on a camel or a
long lazy punt down the Nile.
Cardiff is gateway to Wales, dominated by its
900-year-old Castle. Attractions include The
National Museum of Wales, Millennium stadium,
Llandaf Cathedral and the Welsh Folk museum.
Edinburgh’s centerpiece is its
dramatically-located 1200-year old Castle. The
famous Royal Mile runs from here to Baroque Holyrood
Palace, attractions include; the Old Town (Cowsgate),
Dynamic Earth, Museum of Scotland, the National
Gallery of Scotland and Scottish National Gallery of
Modern Art.
Glasgow is truly Scottish in character. Formerly
Europe’s City of Culture in 1990, the gothic Glasgow
Cathedral, St Mungo's Museum of Religious Life and
Art and Provand's Lordship are popular attractions. |
