Egypt’s monuments are once again gaining the attention of the int’l press — but for all the right reasons this time: The Tourism and Antiquities Ministry will be glad that Reuters has decided to move past the controversial restoration of the Pyramid of Menkaure and instead focus on the opening of a new wing of the Cairo Citadel to visitors. Opening up the additional area in the citadel comes as part of an effort by the ministry to promote short visits to the capital — dubbed Cairo City Break — which the ministry is set to unveil in the coming months.
