📍Grand Egyptian Museum ..⬇️..
The long-awaited Grand Egyptian Museum by Dublin studio Heneghan Peng Architects has been captured ahead of its scheduled opening in Giza, Egypt, later this year.
Heneghan Peng Architects’ design for the museum encompasses 90,000 square metres of a 50-hectare site, making it the world’s biggest museum.
It is being built for the Egyptian Ministry of Culture to house more than 100,000 pharaonic artefacts from Ancient Egypt and, alongside exhibition space, there will be a children’s museum, conference centre, auditorium, conservation spaces and gardens.
💵 How much did the Grand Egyptian Museum cost to build? The total investment to build this monumental museum has reached approximately $1 billion, funded largely through Japanese loans.
⏳The Grand Egyptian Museum has taken almost 20 years to create, from architectural competition to planned opening now later in 2024.
