The wonders of Egypt have been celebrated for thousands of years. With
monuments that date from before the time of Christ, the sheer contrast
of the sphinx existing side-by-side with a modern skyscraper is astounding.
Life in Egypt has always centered around the waters of the Nile River,
and today it is no different. With one of the highest population densities
in the world, the capital city of Cairo gleans most of its resources,
travel and trade from the river. Natural life also springs from the riverbanks,
with rows of palm trees, green valleys, and African flowers standing out
against the harsh surrounding desert.
In addition to their powerful history and geography, present-day Egyptians
pride themselves on their role in the contemporary world. They are known
for producing great literature and modern art, which coexist with legendary
ancient works. Add to this background a blossoming film scene, delicious
Mediterranean cuisine, and a bustling nightlife, and Egypt makes an enticing
place to learn Arabic.
