Shopping in Egypt

Wherever you go in Egypt, shopping is bound to be one of the pleasures of this country. Egypt provides a huge variety of items: Ancient Egypt souvenirs and crafts, papyrus, hand made perfume bottles, belly dancing costumes, Bedouin crafts, jewellery, exotic fragrance oils, art glass, water pipes, and all the way to the wonderful Egyptian cotton.
To say the least, every item has a story behind it, be it Ancient Egyptian souvenirs that tell the history of the great civilization of the Pharoahs, or the craftsman behind the hand made glass and perfume bottles, or the history of belly dancing in Egypt. In every city, there is a special product for you to take home. Of course, Ancient Egypt souvenirs are best found in Luxor and Aswan. Alabaster, papyrus and basketry are abundant.
