CAIRO – 5 June 2022: The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities started operating the electronic ticketing system at the Luxor Museum, Mummification Museum of Ancient Art in Luxor, Esna Temple and Dendara Temple, as part of the ministry's plan for digital transformation, and the development of an integrated electronic system of entry in all archaeological areas and museums open for visits nationwide.

 

 

 

 

Assistant Minister of Tourism and Antiquities for digital transformation Khaled Sherif explained that the ministry’s plan for digital transformation aims to activate the electronic system in 30 archaeological sites and museums open for visits, which is scheduled to be fully implemented by the end of 2022.

 

 

 

 

Sherif added that operating the electronic ticket system will contribute significantly to improving the experience of visitors, as well as speeding up and facilitating the process of entering museums and archaeological sites. Additionally, it will allow knowing the exact numbers of visitors, which contributes to tightening control over the entry and exit process and preventing the use of forged tickets, facilitating the inventory and statistics carried out by the ministry to monitor the incoming tourism movement.
