Egyptian civilization originated over 5,000 years ago, and Egypt's historic sites are among the world's greatest tourist attractions. The first seeds of civilization were sown in the fertile Nile Valley. Here, the first multinational state was born, the first writing system using hieroglyphs was invented, the concepts of kingship, religion and bureaucracy were developed. Mysteries of Egypt takes us on a voyage that traverses the centuries, with amazing views into the wonders of ancient Egypt: the pyramids at Giza, the Sphinx, and the pharaohs' temples, palaces and tombs.
