Jennifer off southern continent characterized by blazing hot

Desert

Fertile life-giving rivers

And dominated by relentless son

Miser country

Without comparison

Egypt

From the barren mountainous landscapes of the sinai to the teeming metropolis of Cairo

The diversity of this country is bound

With the heartbeat of a vibrant marketplace ruling trade

The giant Bazaars explosive colour variety

Catalyses the senses

The River Nile

Coursing from the city Gates

Bells deep

Into the Sahara

Carving a kilometre wide strip of verdant green which passes through centuries of ancient history

From a tiny rivulet born over 5000 years ago

There grew an astounding culture

The like of which will never be seen again

Dryness on this spectacular journey

Through the miracle

Which we call

Egypt

Our journey starts in the region where several thousand years ago a man lead his nation

Out of slavery

Into the holy land

Moses journey out of Egypt

Is littered with miracles and legends

Which Mark the history of the stunning Mount sinai

The sun rises above this spiritual place

Astounding us with it

Panoply of

Colour

The sinai Peninsula

Lies in the east of Egypt

On the border between Africa and Asia

This Peninsula is

Is characterized by desert

And it's a vast chain of mountains

Mount sinai

Also known as Mount Moses

Is found in the south

The Peninsula

And climbs to a height of

2285 m

The second highest mountain in Egypt

As Dawn breaks it touches the summit of the Mountain

The multitude of Peaks are still shrouded in mist till long past Daybreak

But even now

There are often large groups of people gathering

The holy mount

These people are pilgrims

Who started their journey many hours before at the river bass

Climbing to the summit

In order to celebrate the traditional rising of the sun

At the very top

Of the Mountain

6 the chapel of Saint Moses

Also called the chapel of the Holy Trinity

The exterior is surprisingly simple

Given that the Legend of Moses receiving the tablets of the

The Ten Commandments from God

Happened here

The chapel roof boasts a massive bell

On which are written praises to God

Doxology

In Greek

Above the below small sign and dozens of languages

Declares

Peace on Earth

And Goodwill

Do all men

At the foot of the Mountain lies one of the oldest

Christian abbeys in the world

The Abbey of St Carta

Built between 548 and 565 BC

The Abbey is named after Catherine of Alexandria

One of the most important saints in religious culture

The Saint was born a princess from Cyprus who became a martyr

In the 4th century a d

On account of her unwavering belief

The Abbey was built on top of her mortal remains

Most pilgrims are drawn by the Legend of Moses

But St Catherine's Abbey has also drawn

Large crowds

What's from long ago

Due to its holyrail

The abbeys library stores over 6000 manuscript of Christian doctrines

This is matched only by the Vatican itself

Another rarity

R2000 icons

Still partly in existence since the 9th century

This stunning collection was able to survive not only due to the monks diligent care

But in particular due to the unusually isolated location

In all the centuries of its existence

The Abbey has never been plundered

Making it one of the only Christian sanctuaries in history

To survive in its original form

Moses presents emanates from the holy chapel of the thorn bush

Which preserves the Legend of god showing himself to Moses as a Burning Bush

And the Angel of the lord appeared to him in a

Fiery blaze of the Bramble

And he saw that the bush was burning

In the fire

And was not consumed

God who presents himself in Hebrew as yahweh

In the encounter with Moses promises he will free the nation of Israel from Egypt captivity

And deleted it to the holy land of canaan

Which in our days is known as Israel

After 10 days of extreme Enduro

And separating the ocean

To pass through

Moses eventually lead the Nation of Israel to Mount sinai

You reached

The top of the Mountain

And receive

The Ten Commandments of God

Like Moses we will submit ourselves to the desert

Largest part of Egypt is dominated by the vast Sahara

Here you can see the entire spectrum of an extreme environment

From the spiky unforgiving rock formations

2B undulating ever-changing June

Overlooked by the burning fire

The sun

The Sahara covers most of Egypt

But the regions differ wildly within this vast landscape

To the left of the upper River Nile stretches the Libyan desert

The right Bank Of The Nile covers just the Eastern desert

To the north of the Libyan desert lies the wadi Al hitan

One of the most important archaeological finds in terms of fossil

Desert is characterised by 1

Terrible

It's not unusual to find temperatures climbing to over 60 degrees

Equally extreme is the Rapid fall in those figures

When the air cools down quick

Once out of the sun

In winter temperatures reaching below 0

Are not uncommon

But easily the most dangerous asp

This climate

Is the dry atmosphere

And the unexpected scorching heat

Despite the scarcity of water in this hostile environment

It is still possible to track signs of life

In the extreme desert

Criss-crossing the Sahara

Are dozens of riverbed

Once fed by water but now long since dried out

But as the wadi

Still carry water when rain falls in the mountains

They still draw clusters of nomad

The apparent

Piece of the worries is deceptive

This accounts for the remains of ancient mammals often found

Egyptian wadi Al hitan

The Valley of the Whales

Gives its name to the host of discovered whale skeleton

Most of them are fossilized remains

Of the now extinct basilosaurus also known as

King lizard

Similar to the swordfish this predator of Wales survived on a diet of small fish

These fossils show the remains of Hind legs

Which proves

Who's the theory

That wheels are the ancestors of all animals speech

To the east of the Sahara lies the Red Sea

It's name May derive from the Persian

Gave all cardinal directional points a distinctive colour

This seemed art the most southerly point which became the red

The North Point was named the Black Sea

The Red Sea is the only sea which does not have a natural in flowing river

Instead

There is a sea

Gate in the south

Which connects

Do the Indian Ocean

Due to its isolated location the level of salinity is very high

That makes the water clearer than most other seas on this continent

This makes the Red Sea perfect for diving tours

Making it a favourite with tourists

In this vast desert landscape

There is some respite in the form of gurgling oases

They all have one thing in common

The minaret

In addition to the more typical minarets which carrier pitch

You may also see more exotic ones

For example

Minarets with

Staircases on the outside

This type goes back to the Samara mass

Just as all masks

Generally there is a plant

Cutting Through the Narrow thronging Street

Like a deep ravine

This passageway runs towards the center of

Egypt's capital

Passing flats

Houses and buildings from all decades of the past century

As it merges into the skyline

Of Cairo

Pyro lies on the right side of the Nile

And at the mouth of the fan-shaped Nile River Delta

In Egyptian

The city is called alcohol

Meaning the Victorious

From being a small stronghold

Cairo due to being the capital of Egypt

And the largest city on the African continent

Taking in the Magnificent Skyline of the city

One can see cairo's multitude of minarets and mosques

Together with the countless tops of skyscraper

It is a clash between culture

Religion Adam modern lifestyle

The Nile crosses the city like a Lifeline

Since kairos Foundation the river is an absolute necessity

In addition to the water transport

Port Cairo has wide roads and an infrastructure

The guarantees it's modernity and prosperity

Hundreds of thousands travel every day

From the Suburbs and outskirts

To the centre of the cafe

Perhaps due to the vast amount of people commuting in and out of the city

Cairo has developed a very flexible attitude to traffic regulation

Let's move away

Bustling crowds on the street into the tank

The fascinating Bazaar

Offers goods from all over the country

Some of the shop scene

Tiny but

Each merchant is absolutely convinced of their own products

And can Delve into the stock

Producing incredible treasures

Apart from the array of

Spices herbs

Garments

The Bazaar also offer

There is more precious items

Some sellers offer bowls

Plates

Made from metal

Slate

Decorated with ancient calligraphy

Other clever merchants

To transport their stores to make them look like shops on the High Street

Fresh produce like me

Fruits and vegetables are displayed and judged by the critical customer

The choices on the market

Our best

And prices can differ wildly from store to store

Every store

Often with the written prices having no substance at all

Here in the gigantic Bazaar of Cairo

The principle of bargaining

Rules

Haggling

Or bargaining can take minutes

But it's about a valuable piece it could take much longer

It's pretty much taken as an insult

The customer accepts the first

Price the seller offers

Bargaining is a kind of ritual here

As much a part of the sale

ASDA payment

Herbs are the most popular

Product

Over hundreds of years

Herb and silk stalls exported there exotic powders to various European country

Today

Herbs and herbal mixtures

I prepared in various

Small warehouses

The products are milled

To begin with

The powder that comes out of the middle is still not

Finance

Aromatic enough to be sold immediate

The powdered then needs to be safe

Reworked and saved again

Until it is

Absolutely pure

It will then arrive in huge bag

At the market

Outside the city centre

Is a camel Mark

This traditional ancient market was much more important during the time when

Caravan

Travel through the desert

Mini caravans started out

In Cairo

To travel towards Mecca

The route

From Cairo was known as the safe

For the believer

Although the traditional routes to Mecca are not in use anymore

The camel market still is

Very busy today

Overseers

Watch that a camel stay in their places

Close to their sellers

There are many Traders Here to

So no animals are mixed up the camels are marked

Wood colour

These camels

I've been barred

And are leaving the camel market for their new home

We're back in Cairo

At the Egyptian museum

It was built in the year 1900

To save the valuable art treasures

Glean from thousands of years of tomb robberies

This museums collection

Is considered to be the largest in the world

And includes

Countless artifacts belonging to Egyptian emperors

But not every king of Egypt was a pharaoh

Only in the 17th

Dynasty

About 1700 years ago were Egyptian Kings given the title

Faro

Standing out from the many mummies the most famous exhibit is the golden death mask of the Ledger

Very young king

Tutankhamun

This mask

Consists of 11 kilos of

Pure gold

What we know about the Kings of ancient Egypt comes mainly from

Tombs and buildings built by The Pharaoh in their honor

Unbeknown to the many visitors and followers of

Egyptian culture

The oldest evidence of the Dynasty lies not hundreds of miles from the heart of the city

But right here at

At the gates of Cairo

From the second Dynasty onwards

The Suburb of saqqara

Was used as burial place for all the Egyptian pharaohs and Kings

Two more infamous temple complexes of pharaoh dynasties

Are located here

At The River Bend of the Nile

Karnak

And Luxor

The most extensive information about

About Egypt gods can be found in these

Huge temple complexes

The largest is the temple City

Karnak

Contact history goes as far back as 2000 BC

On its vast ground

Not only temples for God

But also for Faro

Kings and very often their wives

The biggest temples

Arthur the king of Gods

Amun-re

The God of War rant

And the goddess nut

Religion played a Leading Role

Ancient Egypt

The belief in the ubiquity of the guards was mirrored in The Pharaoh

Who was seen as the son of the sun god re

Egyptian sky depicting hundreds of guards was the largest in history

Benevolent God like the sun god re

And the god of creation item

Stood opposite the gods of Destruction

Like set

And Apophis

Incartec is also the largest finished apple

Standing 90

Repeat high

Obelisks were seen as the symbol of the rays of the sun god re

And therefore had

Huge religious significance

Obelisks were always card from a single piece of rock

But the finished obelisk could not contain any blemishes or

Cracks

If a defect was found during the carving

The work was 6th immediately and abandoned

Leading from the Temple of Amun

Used to be an alleyway adorned with countless sphinxes

Leading up to the Legendary temple complex of Luxor

This complex was the annual setting for the orbit Festival

On this festival

Statues of the gods Amun

Moat

Andkon

Were taken by both like

Chariots on a procession from Karnak

Through to the yards and the columns holes onto the road to Luxor

We have learnt that this ceremony and strenuous

Ritual

Was performed to legitimise the emperor

And there for the maintenance of the mark

The ancient Egyptian world

Order

The principle belief

The Egyptian era

Was the disorder could only exist

Through the Pharaoh

And his execution of rituals like the opec festival

This was the only way to prevent

Chaos

And the destruction of their mighty Empire

Close to the Nile Delta

Lies the Dead City Sakura

Some of these burial Tombs are over 5000 years old

The name Sakura

Is probably a derivation of the name of the god of death

Soccer

She featured in an incredible ritual

In which mummies

Would lose their soul

Sakura became a burial ground so early in Egypt history

Probably due to its close proximity to Memphis

The original capital of Egypt

Just a few miles

From here

Here we can see

Inside the

The tomb of teddy

A wall with a standing hieroglyphics

Wickes

These scripts were probably never finished

As30 died unexpectedly

The hieroglyphics

Were mentally

Originally

Sakura these murals still found in many times today

Used to be drawn on the outside

Gradually

They were transferred inside

To protect them from the corrosive weather

And Sandstorm

Next to the ruined Chapel

Rises the pyramid of djoser

It represents the belief of life

After death

And has suffered the ravages of time

On the highest point over the complex

Stands the oldest witness

To the Ancient World

There are about eighty pyramids remaining throughout Egypt

The most famous ones are found in Giza

But many more are found in other Necropolis is around the Nile Delta

Not all of the pyramids were designed to be burial grounds

Somewhere used

Hasfit

Graves or cultural palaces

The Giza pyramid is one of the first pyramids in Egypt

4700 years ago

It was built by the Legendary architect

Imhotep

The pyramid has 6 steps and is 184

Hi

The form of the pyramid is based on the first masturbar

It consisted of only 1

Stone step in time more and more masterbus

Were built on top of each other

And this is how the first step pyramids evolved

Although from the outside these pyramids differ

From the great Pyramids of Giza

Inside all pyramids have these step form

They only get their comparatively smooth surface from the amount of steps and the

Type of cladding

Not all finished pyramids are free

Free from defects

The Maiden pyramid is barely recognisable as a pyramid

It looks more like a multilevel tower

The visible remains are just the core

I'll be old pyramid

Large parts of this pile of rubble used to be part of the spirit

The bent pyramid is the oldest and also the strangest

Pyramid found in Egypt

It's most obvious feature is the huge band

This may be due to problems with stability

During the building phase

The red pyramid is also understanding structure

Like the bent pyramid

It was built by King snefru

As it's name indicates

It is characterized

Is by its red colouring

The internal structure

Rogue one pyramid could be totally different

To another

At the cheops pyramid

The burial chamber is in the centre of the building

Many people claim that the past inside is part of a dark

Branched labrum

Which can only be navigated

By the workers who built

The pyramid

The curse of the Pharaoh is also a legend

This can be said to be confirmed by the empty tomb

Inside

The chamber

Even today there are many

Questions surrounding the erection of these stone Colossus

Despite the fact that Egyptians knew of the real in there time all of the heavy Stones often

Over a tongue

Egypt Legacy

The Sphinx

4 over 4000 years

As long as Egypt has existed

The mighty sphinx has stared into the desert

There are many secrets

And legends

Whispered even today

It is unclear whether it was built

As a guardian for a tomb

Or is a portrait of a king

The most intriguing mystery is perhaps

Kids broken nose

The most common assumption was

But the Canons of Napoleon

Is Africa Crusade

Destroyed it

But this was proven wrong

It is more likely that a fanatical iconoclast

Broke off the nose to make a stand against

Religion

Or culture

So since then the Sphinx

But also to the goddess heart tour

This is emphasized

Either had two columns inside the temple

Which have the faces

Of the goddess

The centre of Abu Simbel is not the Temple of nefertari

But the great temple of Ramses II

His burial place is about 500 feet away from his wife

Every great temple of ancient Egypt

Has a huge main entry

It is cold

A pilot

At Abu Simbel the Rock itself

Is the entrance gay

On the edge of the guitar for seated statue

Each statue represents Ramses himself

The self-portrait show Ramses desire to be the same

As the gods

This can also be read on the inscriptions on the statues on which

She is described as

The son of all emperor

Lover of a moon and a tomb

And emperor of both countries upper and lower

Egypt

Many holes with countless inscriptions and statues of God

Are Carved Into The Rock

In one of the holes

Is a relief that shows scenes of the life of the pharaoh

In the last room of the temple

The Sanctuary

Are statues of the guards

Star

Amon re

Rhetorically

And in the middle

Rameses himself

Brandy

The amazing temple complex of Abu Simbel

We are now on our way to a Valley

But some Might Say

Is even more

Legendary

The twin statues of the memnon Colossus

Guard the street leading to the tomb of the Emperors which bears its name

The Valley of the Kings

Back in time it is said the statues gave out mysterious sounds

Stabbed on

The Valley of the King's is close to the temple complexes of Karnak

And Luxor on the other side of the River Nile

As at saqqara

This gallery contains a multitude of Tombs of Pharaohs and Kings

Lined up next week

Surrounded by mountains and Hills

The burial grounds are spread right

Across the vast Valley

Next 2 Days in the south

Lies the Valley of the Queens

These are similar tools housing the wives of the kings and many senior dignitaries

And officials

Of Egyptian courts

Hear the numerous tunes

Look unimpressive

And seem to merge with the desert sand dunes

These teams playing appearance may have been a rules to deter fee

Because we now know inside

These graves were decorations of the

Highest order

Not far from the Valley of the Queen's

Is the Enormous temple dedicated to Hatshepsut

She was one of the few

Queens of Egypt to rain by herself

During her Dynasty many innovative ideas were expanded

Architecture and design

And her hero is characterized

Buying exceptionally long

Period of peace

The temple is architectural very different

Two other temples

From the same.

Among its outstanding features

Are the coolant holes

The replace the traditional mighty entrance Gate

Also been open out onto best

Terraces

Giving an affable friendly

Open impression

In contrast to the old

Dark and tightly constructed Temples of the pharaoh

The balcony that leads over two floors

Contains inscriptions about the life

I've had chips

In the right wing are drawings

Depicting the royal birth of the Queen

This is therefore called the birth Hall

In another hall or drawings about an expedition to a wealthy country

Which has great treasures

Such as gold

Ebony and moore

Like many other burial places

The grave of Hatshepsut

Wasn't only dedicated to the Queen

But also to some gods

Which is why there are chapels

And temples with murals in Honour of the gods Anubis

And had tour

Now we are leaving the death temple of the Queen

And making our way back

To the Valley of the Kings

Despite all precautions

The graves of this infamous Valley have been victims of countless grave robber

And even after detailed explorations and additional dag

Polluting decreased only a little

In 1922 the biggest find in the history of the Valley

It was made

The Grave

Of Tutankhamun

Because the entrance of the Grave was buried for a long time down a long passage

All the treasures of the pharaoh

Remained untouched

As well as the Legendary golden

Death mask

The graves of the Pharaohs have always fascinated local people

But there are no traces is all records of the ancient worker

Or of ordinary citizens of Egypt

With one exception

The day year almudena

Which is a workers Village

In the Valley of the

The Kings

Hear that used to live artists

And worker

Who built and painted

The graves of artists

How many sharks have been found between the ruined

Often depicting writing

Cold ostraka

These testaments wear a sensational source of information about the lives of the Ordinary People In

In Ancient

In the village we have found not only remains of houses

But also littlechapel

And graveyard

Sometimes

The quality of the mural paintings

BS graves

Can match even the more famous paintings

In the graves of the

Similar to the Temples of Abu Simbel

There are many Statues of Ramses II

Carved Into The Rock

The remaining ruins of a bygone era

Of the kings of the Desert

The Lights of the big cities are shining over the same ground
