Egypt is an ancient state located in the north-east of Africa. And a significant part of the territory of this country is occupied by low plateaus and desert plains. But in the rest, life is raging, tourism is especially flourishing. After all, Egypt is washed by two seas - the Mediterranean and the Red.
