Egypt
Once upon a time, there was a land with a series of secretes; most of that land was located in the northeast of Africa and it still mysterious
today. Yes! That’s my motherland---Egypt. Now, let me introduce my motherland to you, I believe that you will be eager to visit there.
Egypt is a country with an ancient civilization; it has a history of more than 7000 years and it is one of the cradles of human culture.
The ancient Egyptians had advanced civilization and I think they were so smart. They created the Hieroglyphic and solar calendar, they know how to preserve dead bodies from decay, what’s more, they built the pyramids and magnificent palace and none of us know how can they do this in their time. So, w hen you set foot on this land, I’m sure you will be impressed by everything that you have visited.
As we all known, the most famous tourist attraction is pyramids, and the most famous pyramid is Pyramid of Khufu. Because it is the
biggest and greatest one. It is the best example of pyramids. But if you want to enter the pyramid, you’d better not stay in it for a long time for it can cause asphyxia. The another well-known tourist spot is sphinx; it is nearby the Pyramid of Khufu. The ancient Egyptians think the lion
symbolizes courage, strength and excellence, so they built the sphinx near the pyramid to protect the Pharaoh. What’s more, I suppose that
you will be curious about the mummy because the stories of mummy
curses are widespread in the world.
