@wearesoultalk: Egypt has begun phasing out horse and camel rides around the Pyramids of Giza as part of a major overhaul aimed at improving animal welfare and modernising one of the world’s most famous tourist attractions. The move follows years of criticism from animal welfare organisations, which documented cases of horses and camels being overworked, malnourished and mistreated while carrying tourists in extreme heat. Electric buses and shuttle carts are being introduced to transport visitors around the archaeological site instead. The changes apply specifically to the Giza Pyramids complex rather than all historical sites across Egypt. Officials say the transition is designed to protect working animals, improve the visitor experience and strengthen Egypt’s reputation as a sustainable tourism destination. While some animal operators are expected to be affected by the changes, the government says the new transport system will provide a safer and more ethical way for millions of visitors to explore the iconic UNESCO World Heritage Site.🐪 #goodnews #positivity #wholesome #inspiring #viral
