Egypt is a historical vacation place

The name Nile results from a Greek word Neilos meaning valley, the river Nile is he longest river in the world whose source is known to Jinja Uganda. It is a great river of Northeast Africa that begins its journey in well watered regions near the equator and then flow north word across the dreadful Sahara desert before emptying in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. The river is 6695 km (4184 miles) long. The river flows through a total of nine countries although it is most associated to Uganda and Egypt. The other countries include Ethiopia, Zaire, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi and Sudan.

But for a real taste of ancient Egypt, head west to Thebes, also known as the West Bank. Here you can visit and explore actual burial tombs, and see the surroundings in which Pharaohs such as Tutankhamun, Seti II and several generations of Rameses chose to be eternally preserved. There are three areas to the Theban necropolis; the well-known Valley of the Kings housing the Pharaohs, the Valley of the Queens which contains the mummies of Egyptian Queens and their children, and a separate area for tombs of Egyptian noblemen and women.
