Speaking on the occasion, Egyptian Ambassador Dr. Mohamed Higazy said, "India is very important to us not only as a tourism market but more so as a country with which we share strong political and cultural ties."
"India and Egypt have cultural synergies and affinities that go far back in history. It is for this reason that we are launching our new campaign and logo here. We want more and more Indians to visit Egypt and experience for themselves the warm hospitality of Egypt something for which both India and Egypt are fabled," he said.
"Further, both the countries are perfect tourist destinations offering an eclectic mix of past and the present, ancient and modern, art and culture, heritage and history, sports and entertainment," Dr. Higazy added.
