Lake Timsah is one of the most famed lakes in Egypt, known for its magnificent blue waters. Known as the “Crocodile Lake” in Arabic, the lake lies between the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea and is overlooked by numerous sandy beaches. It's a beautiful spot where one can rejuvenate by walking by the lake’s cool waters or enjoying a coffee or cold drinks in the patios of the many cafes there; and don’t worry, there aren’t any crocodiles in the water.

Ahmad Orabi stands as one of Egypt's greatest revolutionary and anti-colonial symbols. The museum, which was previously Orabi’s home, tells the story of an Egyptian peasant rising from poverty to end the reign of a foreign royal family that was supported by the British and back in Egyptians hands. The museum tells the story of Egyptian people rising against occupation and finally gaining liberation from colonial forces.
