The Royal Carriages Museum in Cairo reopened to visitors on Oct. 31, 2020 after closure of nearly two decades. The museum houses royal carriages and horse guards' accessories of Mohamed Ali dynasty, many of which were exquisite foreign presents to the royal family. The museum closed for restoration in 2001 but soon the project was halted. The restoration project was re-launched by the Egyptian government in 2017. (Xinhua/Ahmed Gomaa)
