Giza

Removed from Unnamed collection

Country: Egypt

The Nile’s west bank gives Giza a front-row place opposite central Cairo, within the Greater Cairo metropolis. Egypt’s third-largest city by area and population, it also ranks among Africa’s most populous cities and serves as the capital of Giza Governorate. Ancient Memphis, once the capital of the unified Egyptian state under Pharaoh Narmer, is less than 30 kilometres to the south.
