Tourism in Egypt
The
great pyramids of Giza were built about 4,500 years
ago, and tourists have been coming to see them ever
since.
Now they are coming in record numbers. An estimated
four million tourists will visit Egypt's famed sites
this year. Tourism, recently the country's fifth
largest source of income, is expected soon to become
its number one revenue source.
