It is an important ring in Egypt’s museums. This building covers an area of about 10 thousand square meters, but the gallery is just 3 thousand square meters.
In fact, it is housing 2000 pieces from different periods. The ground floor includes all the shops for souvenirs (papyrus, gold, silver, stones, clothes, and perfume)
Some of the main items are those of king Tutankhamun 1330 BC. There are some small figures (we call them Ushabty) with the key of life (Ankh sign). These items are made of wood but covered with gold.

Hurghada Museum
Enjoy watching the perfect statue of the seated scribe. He was an important personality and his job put him in a position close to the king. We can just look at the 200-pound note to see him and his future look! This piece is made of granite but the famous one is in Cairo Museum but it is of limestone.
It is a great option to visit Hurghada Museum and to explore some of the Egyptian treasures without travelling to Cairo or Luxor. A masterpiece of Egyptian art, this statue has been identified as Meritamun, the daughter of Ramses II. Meritamun wears here a number of accessories which display the royal fashion and style of Dynasty 19. Her crown is formed by a wall of cobras with sun disks on their heads; she most likely originally had a tall headdress of two ostrich plumes with a sun disk atop her head
Servant statue
Bread was a staple food in ancient Egypt, as it continues to be today. The dead, just like the living, needed a steady supply of food to survive, so it is not surprising thatmany of the servant statuettes discovered in tombs are involved in the various stages of making bread, just like this one. Some are depicted kneading dough, and others baking bread, but before these steps, the grain had first to be ground.
This particular statuette depicts a man performing this crucial activity. The presence of this first step in the bread making process could thus stand in for the whole, guaranteeing that the deceased would have all the bread he needed for eternity.
