Into Egypt? Go to Athens

The National Archaeological Museum in Athens has expanded and reopened its Egyptian art display to include more of the 6,000 objects possessed by the Museum. While most visitors concentrate on the extensive collection of the finest Greek art, the Egyptian collection has often been overlooked. Even in its smaller form, it was well worth a look, but it is considered by some to be one of the best collections of Egyptian art in the world.
