The Grand Egyptian Museum features a giant staircase leading to a collection of pristine statues of ancient Egyptian rulers, providing a glimpse into their daily lives. It takes at least one or two hours to tour the grand museum, with each piece given ample space for appreciation in a modern and tranquil environment. The museum’s collections include historic statues and artifacts that tell the story of ancient Egypt, highlighting the fears and hopes of its people. Among the grand collections is the gold mask of Tutankhamun, which will be kept in its own climate-controlled room in the museum. NBC News was granted exclusive access to the museum’s backroom stores in 2017, revealing Tutankhamun’s personal items such as bows, wine, underpants, and the embalmed remains of his stillborn daughters. The museum offers a detailed and immersive experience for visitors to learn about and appreciate the rich history of ancient Egypt.
