Lonely Planet review for Agricultural Museum

It may sound dull, but the Agricultural Museum is far from it. Spread over several buildings, the displays tell you all you’ve ever wanted to know about agriculture in Egypt, from Pharaonic times onwards, and so much more: dioramas depict traditional weddings, glass cases are packed with wax cucurbits, and in one mothball-scented wing, a specimen of every bird in Egypt has been stuffed and pinned to a board. Dusty and a bit spooky, it’s a true hall of wonders. It’s about 1km from the Doqqi metro station.
