The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization
El-Fustat, Old Cairo, Cairo, Egypt
The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization is a verified museum site in Old Cairo rather than a vague district inclusion, and official sources place it on El-Fustat Road at عين الصيرة/Ain El-Sira in the historic city of Fustat. Cairo Governorate describes it as a museum dedicated to Egyptian civilization from prehistory to the present day, while the museum’s own official site provides current practical visitor details including the address, opening hours and ticketing links. The museum presents broad chronological interpretation rather than focusing on a single dynasty or excavation, which makes it a useful counterpoint to Cairo’s older, more site-specific monuments. I have placed it tenth only as an editorial ordering choice within this list, not as a judgement on significance. It is especially valuable for travellers who want a purpose-built museum with structured galleries and clearer orientation to Egypt’s long historical arc. Official material also confirms practical access details: daily daytime opening, Friday evening hours, last ticket admission times, and the nearest metro at Mar Gerges. Those specifics make it easier to plan alongside nearby Old Cairo sights. It belongs on a Cairo city list because its location, operation and visitor access are all clearly supported by current official operator and government pages.
