The Pharaonic Village
The Pharaonic Village was founded by
Dr. Hassan Ragab Ph.D., who was the person
who rediscovered the ancient Egyptian art of
paper – making (Papyrus). 
The Pharaonic Village is Egypt's historic
park. It's a unique place where Egypt's
entire history is explained in 2 to 3 hours
including our ancient history as well as our
modern history. Visiting The Pharaonic
Village is recommended to be at the
beginning of the trip to Egypt. It is
located on an island in the Nile, just 3
miles south of the center of Cairo. In this
village you are transported by floating
amphitheaters, and a hundred actors and
actresses demonstrate scenes from ancient
Egypt (Papyrus making, sculpting, home
building….etc.).
In addition, the village has a complete
replica of king Tutankhamun's tomb with all
its treasures as well as 12 new museums, 4
related to ancient Egypt (mummification and
medicine, pyramids building, arts and
beliefs, ancient Egyptian boats) and 5
museums related to other periods in Egyptian
history (Cleopatra's museum, Coptic history,
Islamic civilization, Napoleon's expedition
to Egypt, Egypt's modern history museum).
There are also 3 museums related to our late
three presidents, Mohamed Naguib, Nasser and
Sadat).
Also the village is a wonderful place for
children as it includes an interesting
amusement park "Tut land", and an "Art
Center". Also you can go on our Yacht "Nefertari"
with which you can make a pleasant trip on
the Nile.
The village is a must for all visitors to
Egypt. It's Open from 9 am – 6 pm daily (9
am - 9 pm from 25/6 to 31/8).
