THESE BIRDS STAGE ROWDY LOVE-INS ON ROCKY COASTS

THE ART OF IMMORTALITY

THREADS OF MEMORY

SEVEN DAYS OF UNWRAPPING THE KING

FILLED WITH RICHES—AND MEANING

FIT FOR A PHARAOH AND MORE • THE NEW GRAND EGYPTIAN MUSEUM IS A MONUMENTAL SHOWCASE FOR KING TUT’S TREASURES—AND A SYMBOL OF A NATION THAT HAS RECLAIMED OWNERSHIP OF ITS PAST.

A NEW ORDER • WITH A MIX OF AUDACITY AND AMBITION, EGYPT AIMS TO RELIEVE CAIRO’S CROWDING BY TRANSFORMING ARID LAND INTO A GLEAMING CAPITAL CITY BUILT FOR SIX MILLION PEOPLE.

SHIFTING SEATS OF POWER • Egypt is moving its capital for the 26th time. During the country’s 5,000-year history, capitals have been declared in 18 different cities by pharaohs, kings, emperors, caliphs, and generals, with each one displaying the distinctive mark—in art and architecture—of its new rulers. By moving the center of government, these leaders sent a clear message to their subjects and the world: They were in charge, and Egypt was theirs to shape.

A PACIFIC REBIRTH • DEVASTATED BY WARMING IN 2016, PROTECTED CORAL REEFS AROUND THE SOUTHERN LINE ISLANDS HAVE MADE AN AMAZING RECOVERY.

FIRE ISLAND • THE LAVA STREAMS THAT BULLDOZED PART OF LA PALMA SHOCKED RESIDENTS OF THE SPANISH CANARIES—AND BECAME A LESSON IN LIVING WITH A VOLCANO’S FURY.

A MIGHTY BLAST • After 50 years of relative quiet, La Palma—one of the youngest and most volcanically active islands in the Canaries—saw a dramatic eruption in 2021. The event was one of the most devastating in the archipelago’s roughly 500 years of recorded volcanic history. It lasted nearly 86 days, damaging more than 2,800 buildings and forcing over 7,000 people to evacuate.
