The Times has officially recognized the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) as a “new world wonder,” often referring to it as the “fourth pyramid”.
Situated in Giza, it is praised for its massive scale, displaying over 100,000 artifacts—including the full Tutankhamun collection—and offering a modern, panoramic cultural experience.
The publication highlighted the GEM’s “jaw-dropping” design and status as a must-visit, monumental, and immersive, new wonder.
The museum is recognized as the largest in the world dedicated to a single civilization, placing Egypt in the global spotlight and top tourism destinations in 2026.
The museum houses more than 100,000 artifacts, featuring the complete Tutankhamun collection—over 5,000 items—together for the first time in history.
Following years of development and anticipation, the GEM began its highly anticipated opening in late 2025/early 2026, quickly ranking among the top global destinations.
