The statue of Pharaoh Ramses II “deposited” and stored for 12 years outside, since 2006, in the enclosure of the Great Egyptian Museum (GEM) which is under construction in Giza at the foot of the pyramids, is transported today with great pomp, at the entrance of the monumental hall that will welcome future visitors from around the world … This is normally his last home. Few people know that this monumental statue has already walked a lot and I can’t resist showing you here in photos, the incredible walk of the Pharaoh to the foot of the pyramids, his incredible journey given its size and weight.
