As is often the case in Egypt, for all its advantages and advantages, the museum has significant drawbacks. It is conveniently located and highlights interesting events from the Second World War. There are planes, tanks, and cannons on the open-air territory. Bas-reliefs and monuments were made. There are many display cases in the building with mannequins in the form of soldiers from different countries, their weapons, ammunition, and even a BMW motorcycle with a machine gun in a sidecar. There is also a Russian diploma for contribution to history. Among the disadvantages: it is not really written how much the ticket costs, whether there is a discount upon presentation of an Egyptian resident card. For four adults, they charged us 1,100 pounds and gave us a pack of tickets, where it was printed - 75 pounds apiece. The open-air appliances are painted with wood varnish on top of the paint. The varnish is cracked and peels off in layers. About half of the building, where a museum could be, is occupied by a cafe and a VIP room with a toilet. Why turn the museum into a dining room? It's a little dark inside the museum, the LED lights are blinking a lot. Dusty exhibits in places. However, I would like to note the cleanliness and well-groomed weapons. For example, there may be a yellowed and dusty mannequin, and in his hands he has a polished and well-preserved machine gun. In general, I recommend visiting the museum once.
