- The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) also known as the Giza Museum, is an archaeological museum under construction in Giza, Egypt. Located next to the Giza Pyramids, the Museum will host over 100,000 artifacts that belong to the ancient Egyptian civilization, including the complete Tutankhamun collection, and is set to be the largest archaeological museum in the world. Many pieces in its collection will be displayed for the first time.[4] The museum is sited on a plot of land of about 490,000 square metres (5,300,000 sq ft)[5] which makes it the world’s biggest museum, approximately 2 kilometres (1.2 miles) from the Giza pyramid complex and was built as part of a new master plan for the Giza Plateau called Giza 2030.
- Let’s start with the Hanging Obelisk, which is one of the most unique and interesting exhibits in the museum. This obelisk is suspended from the ceiling, giving visitors a unique perspective on its ancient hieroglyphics and intricate carvings.
- Next, we’ll move on to the Ramses II Statue. This statue is truly awe-inspiring and is one of the largest exhibits in the museum. It stands tall and proud, and visitors can even observe the intricate details of its carvings and embellishments up close.
