The much - anticipated Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), housing the world’s largest collection of ancient Egyptian artefacts, has finally partially opened to visitors.

A series of galleries have been opened to the public over a decade after construction on the mega -museum got underway.

Situated near the famous Giza pyramids, it was initially due to open in 2012, but the launch has been pushed back repeatedly for various reasons including costs.

The opening of the main galleries is a trial run, following last year's launch of the main hall and stairway of Pharoanic statues.
