Mohamed Awad
                                    Tourism in the Middle East     
 

         My name is Mohamed. I was born in Chicago, Illinois. After that, I lived in the united state two years. Then my father got a visa to work in Saudi Arabia. I had been there almost 17 years, and now I am back to my home.
    I am originally from Sudan, but I don't just spend my summer time in Sudan. I  also spend my vacation in Egypt and some  countries because I like to travel and I like to have friends from all over the Middle East. I visited many places in the Middle East. Last summer, I went to Egypt. I visited my friends, and I had a lot of fun with them.
 
    Therefor, I would like to introduce you to the grate places in Egypt so you can visit it with me right now without even going to Egypt!
 

THE PYRAMIDS: In the past, the Egyptians built the pyramids for the Pharaoh  the name of Egypt king. This place is the grave for the Pharaoh. They started to build it before he died because it takes time to build it.
It looks small in the picture, but in fact it is very huge, and a great piece of  architecture from the past. you can see in the picture how big the one block from the thousands of them are when the kids and the adults climbing.


 
 To get inside these grave you will have to bend over because the entrance is very tight. These is not a mistake made by the people who built it because they meant  to kneel when someone wanted to see the pharaoh. These is a kind of prayer because they used to pray to the pharaoh while they were walking inside. You will see some strange sculpture and these is the the Hieroglyphics, e old Egyptian language, and nothing else except the mummy place,and the place where they but the pharaoh's property, like his clothes he used to have to wear when he was in his palace  his bed and his gold and even the salves because they think the pharaoh   is not dead but he is in  another word.
 

    The Nile river: The tallest river in the world, is one of the special places that I loved and I still love to stay on it  and watch it. when I was there always go with my friends for fishing and discuss about very thing in our life had a lot of fun even by my self when I take a walk in the riverbank and watch the boats running in the river and the sun when it goes down and suddenly disappear. And now in my second home, when I have time, I go to Hudson river and enjoy by watching it special in the sunset. And I think about my home and the memories I had in my past. I am proud that we have this gorgeous river, and will have it forever......
