Egypt – a mysterious and enigmatical country with its own unique culture, warm waters of the Red Sea, white-sand beaches, red corals, pristine monuments and lively nightlife scene… Egypt is full of natural and ancient attractions and it is ready to meet you 4 seasons in a year.

It was my second time in Egypt and I still ready to visit it, to wander among dark passages of glorious pyramids and to stand near these Pharaonic monuments. I am in love with this miraculous country. But I won’t tell you info about climate, when to go, what to take with you or where to stay, just 10 facts everybody must know about Egypt:

1. There are not many road signs in Egypt. Actually, there are a few of them and only in the center of Cairo. The rest of the country uses special signals;
   
2. Hurghada – is one of the most popular tourist center, looks like a real big construction activity;
3. A week starts on Sunday, because Friday and Saturday are official days-off;
4. Pyramids are situated in Giza and not in Cairo as most people think;
5. Most sites, even Stumble and Firefox are banned. Because nobody can download and use free content;
6. Europeans are not very well-bred people and very often their behavior leaves much to be desired;
7. Almost all taxis are of the same colouring;
8. Alcoholic drinks are almost banned and it is really challenging to buy them;
9. A flight over Cairo and its conglomerates takes 30 minutes of your life. It is very beautiful, ’cause from the viewport you can see lot of lights;
10. Extreme and very clear division between the rich and the poor is seen with the naked eye.
