Going on an Overseas Business Trip as a Slope Engineer: Part 15 (Extra Edition 4)

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

Continuing from last time, this is the Egypt installment.

The TV show *World's Mysteries* always highlights the good parts, but in my case, it seems like it's actually showing a lot of the bad parts, lol.

That, too, is a single concept that encompasses both the public and private sides of that country.

Whether you find that interesting or not is up to you, but I hope this information might come in handy if you ever go there lol

From the Pyramids to the Archaeological Museum

It takes about 40 minutes to get from the Pyramids of Giza to the Archaeological Museum.

The Archaeological Museum is located along the Nile, and the surrounding area is home to world-renowned luxury hotels such as The Ritz-Carlton.

 

Normally, I think you’d have the choice between a taxi and an Uber to get from the Pyramids of Giza to the Archaeological Museum.

Personally, I find haggling over prices a pain, so I usually take Uber, but traffic was terrible on Google Maps, so I took a motorcycle lol

I actually would have preferred the subway, but since it wasn't where it was supposed to be (lol), I called for a motorcycle.

Egypt Metro

Even so, after being turned down several times, the Uber Bike finally arrived after about 20 minutes.

 

Generally, helmets aren't required here.

I don't need a helmet, but if I get in an accident, I'll definitely die lol

As you can see, the streets are a little run-down, lol.

Well, Japan is a bit too clean in some ways.

Well, there's so much sand dust that my face is covered in it, lol.

The building across the Nile River on the right—the first one you see—is the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, and

The brown building you see straight ahead is the Archaeological Museum.

 

It was much faster than going by car, and we arrived in about 20 minutes.

It might be a little more of a hassle than driving a car, but it's fast and cheap, so it's definitely worth it.

It was 500 yen.

It was so great that I gave them a tip of about 200 yen, and they were really happy about it lol

 

It feels better to hand out a few hundred yen with the attitude of giving it away than to get ripped off, lol.

Anything goes these days, doesn't it?

Egyptian Museum of Archaeology

This is the Archaeological Museum.

Generally speaking, in Egypt as well, you have to pay by credit card to enter facilities like this.

Please be aware that we do not accept cash.

Pyramids of Giza Price

This price list is for the Pyramids of Giza, but I have absolutely no idea what it says lol

That said, if you upload this photo to ChatGPT and have it translated, you'll understand everything.

These days, with AI, things are so much easier, aren't they?

Egyptian Museum of Archaeology

I got into the Egyptian Museum for about 3,380 yen!

This is where Egypt really starts to amaze you.

 

The interior is surprisingly spacious, and it takes quite a while just to walk around.

The Egyptian Museum is the world's largest museum housing a collection of Egyptian artifacts, and

It is a two-story building with over 100 rooms, and

 

I think it will take about two hours or more to go around the entire place and take a good look at everything.

Well, since I just wanted to get a quick glance at everything, I just skimmed through it all lol

 

Next time, I'll talk about what's inside, lol.

I’m no longer involved in slope-related work due to my business trip, but I’d appreciate it if we could stay in touch for a little while longer.

 

See you later.
