埃及王室木乃伊廳正式向公眾首次開放

With its dark walls and dimly lit open rooms, the crypt-like Royal Mummies Hall at Cairo's new National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC) opened to visitors for the first time on Sunday, displaying 20 mummies of ancient Egyptian kings and queens.

The mummies were among 22 transferred earlier in April from the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square in downtown Cairo to the NMEC in a remarkable parade.

Mahrous el-Sanadidy, a senior curator at the museum, says the last two mummies will be rotated with the other mummy exhibits.
