North and West Africa
Egyptian civilisation, with pyramids, temples, buildings and
mausoleums...and their reputation spreaded milleniums ago. Generations have
been researching and exploring for centuries, but no historians or scientists
in the world could find a satisfactory answer to the question whether the
ancient Egyptians had created the masterpieces themselves, or a supernatural
force had intervened in the great work that still remains to be mysterious?
Travelling along Nile river
is itself a delight. We get to experience a lot of stimulating facts that comes
from our own feeling towards peaceful, tranquil and wildly attractive beauty of
the sightseeings on riverbanks, or by the grandness of architectural structures
that go beyond your craziest imagination.

Such a great pity to say goodbye to Nile
river and the country of Pyramids. We still hope for a day to come back and
discover one of the greatest roots of mankind civilisation. There are still
other interesting mysteries lying somewhere in ancient drawings, waiting for us
to find the answer.
