The treasures discovered in the "forgotten city" are on a par with those of Tutankhamun. Yet the riches contained in the tombs of its pharaohs remained anonymous for more than six decades. Tanis is actually just one of many names for this forgotten city. In ancient Egypt it was called Djanet, and in the Old Testament it is known as Zoan. Today it is called San el-Hagar.
Thanks to its advantageous location, the city became an economic center long before the expansion of Alexandria. But the course of the city's political life eventually changed, and that of the river as well: Tanis became a muddy plain dotted with seemingly uninteresting mounds.
After finishing Tanis and Baptist, you will be transferred to Ismailia and enjoy your meal. In the heart of Egypt, nestled between the bustle of Port Said and the iconic Suez Canal, lies the enchanting city of Ismailia. You can discover the beauty and charm of Ismailia to the world.

Learn more about it, then you will be transferred back to Cairo.
