The great pyramid climbers

When did it start and who was the first person to climb the great pyramid of Giza?

"Hefnawi Abdulnabi", was associated with the name of the Great Pyramid,
And continued climbing daily for half a century, worked for a period in the Antiquities Authority, and then a guide to the pyramids.
After attempts, Hefnaoui managed to climb the pyramid up to the summit in a record time of "6 minutes",in 1951.
His fame became known and the officials asked him to accompany the guests of Egypt who wanted to climb the summit of Khufu pyramid.
The first official to step up with him was "Bevin," the former foreign minister of England. After the revolution,
He was named by Mohammed Najib the first presedent of Egypt as the hero of the heroes. The title continued to be followed by everyone. Tourists called him a champ.
And accompanied him on his visit to the pyramid.

Here you can see a video of the first rare attempt for climbing the pyramid in 1951

 Hefnawi Abdulnabi

Egypt issued a law in the late 1990s prohibiting the climbing of the pyramids, whether for Egyptians or foreigners,
to preserve the stones of the impact and not to tamper with it and break it to take memorial pieces,
as was the case in some cases, as well as in the interest of saving life,
which introduces offenders to imprisonment for a period of up to three years.

Sinai hidden places

Don't leave Sinai without going to The wushuashi valley.

The wushuashi valley is one of the hidden places in Sinai, even Google doesn't show much information about it . its formed by the fall of winter rain in the mountains,
to create a natural swimming pool that can swim and enjoy warm water.

The valley is surrounded by turquoise and granite mountains on each side,
divided into three fresh water springs that did not evaporate despite the heat of the place.

The water of the valley is warm due to granite stones.
Wadi al-Washwash and those who do not know about it.

The Wushuashi Valley is about 15 kilometers from Nuweiba, in the direction of Taba, near the Ras Shitan area.
The Bedouin organize safari trips there by SUV or jeep because the roads are unpaved.
he height of these mountains reaches 100 to 150 meters.
It may take an hour and a half climb to reach the first water lake, and will pass swimming to reach the second and third lake.
You can jump from above the mountains to enjoy the visibility of water and diving.
The depth of the lake is about 6 meters.
In later post we will tell you how to get to Nuweiba in Sinai and what else you can see there.
Now i will let you Enjoy the photos of Wushuashi Valley
