Near the Red Sea coast of Makadi Bay, south of Hurghada, you can walk around the tourist landmarks of Cairo, Alexandria and Aswan through an exhibition called Mini Egypt.

 

A tourist can see in two hours the most prominent landmarks, a total of 60, of Egypt in the exhibition. The exhibition helps tourists choose the landmarks they would like to visit.

 

Exhibition manager Samir Gharib said the exhibition took one year to build.
