Abstract

Egypt, renowned as the cradle of civilization, is among the world's most culturally significant nations. Cultural heritage and tourism are deeply interconnected, representing two sides of the same coin. In the context of the rapidly growing global tourism industry, the integration of innovative technology has become crucial for revitalizing Egypt's cultural heritage. Technology helps improve the infrastructure network, increase tourism revenues, and invest in digital innovation. There are still some challenges, including high implementation costs, limited digital literacy, workforce gaps, and a lack of widespread digital culture, all of which require greater attention and effort. Although Ancient Egypt remains a subject of mystery for researchers, technological advances have significantly advanced efforts to reveal aspects of ancient Egyptian civilization. These tools have enabled scholars to delve more deeply into Egypt's cultural heritage and ancient history. Technology has been used to reconstruct the layouts of ancient structures and restore damaged artifacts to their original condition. Technology can also translate inscriptions and analyze symbols within their historical contexts, facilitating a better understanding of the messages left by ancient Egyptians.
