Cairo Museum
The Egyptian Museum of Antiquities contains many important pieces of ancient Egyptian history. It houses the world’s largest collection of Pharaonic antiquities, and many treasures of King Tutankhamen. The Egyptian government established the museum, built in 1835 near the Ezbekeyah Garden. The museum soon moved to Boulaq in 1858 because the original building was getting to be too small to hold all of the artifacts. In 1855, shortly after the artifacts were moved, Duke Maximilian of Austria was given all of the artifacts. He hired a French architect to design and construct a new museum for the antiquities. The new building was to be constructed on the bank of the Nile River in Boulaq. In 1878, after the museum has been completed for some time, it suffered some irreversible damage; a flood of the Nile River caused the antiquities to be relocated to another museum, in Giza. The artifacts remained there until 1902 when they were moved, for the last time, to the current museum in Tahrir Square.
Citadel Of Salah El Din & Mosque of Mohamed Ali
The Citadel was built by the Ayyubid ruler Salah al-Din (Saladin) between 1176 and 1183 CE, to protect it from the Crusaders. Only a few years after defeating the Fatimid Caliphate, Saladin set out to build a wall that would surround both Cairo and Fustat. Built on a promontory beneath the Muqattam Hills, a setting that made it difficult to attack, the Citadel was completed in 1183-1184, the wall Saladin had envisioned was still under construction in 1238, long after his death.
The Mosque of Mohamed Ali Was built later in 1816 - 1839 by Mohamed Ali Ruler of Egypt , the mosque was designed to be a copy of the blue Mosque in Istanbul , The designer of the mosque he is Turkish and his name is Yousif Boshnak .
