    The collection is absolutely stunning! It contains a wide variety of artifacts -- from clothing to jewelry and statues of all sizes -- beautifully preserved and presented. It's so interesting, so engrossing, and you'll learn a tremendous amount about Ancient Egypt. Highly recommended!

    Nice little museum with Egyptian artifacts, not crowded when I went which made it a more pleasant viewing experience compared to other museums with Egyptian exhibits in other countries which are extremely crowded most of the time. My favorite was the mummies section!
