Begin with the Grand Hall, monumental sculpture, and Grand Staircase to understand scale, chronology, and royal symbolism.
Continue through selected main galleries, linking objects to the broader story of daily life, belief, power, and craftsmanship in ancient Egypt.
Focus on Tutankhamun highlights and the objects that connect most naturally to Luxor, the Valley of the Kings, and the wider Nile journey.
