1Washington DC
welcome to Explore Egypt in Washington, D.C. — a journey where ancient civilization meets modern power. Our story begins at the U.S. Capitol, where the Egyptian concept of sacred authority transformed into the American idea of law and democracy. At the Library of Congress, we step into the world’s greatest house of knowledge — where the wisdom of Ancient Egypt lives beside the memory of all human civilizations. Inside the National Museum of Natural History, we meet Egypt face to face: real mummies, real kings, real science, and the eternal belief in resurrection. Before us rises the American Obelisk — the Washington Monument — directly inspired by Egypt’s sacred monuments of eternity. At the Lincoln Memorial, we reflect upon moral judgment, legacy, and the sacred role of leadership. And finally, at the Jefferson Memorial, surrounded by water and light, we witness the eternal rebirth of civilization. This is not a tour. This is a civilization revelation.”
