Egypt is taking part in an Africa day event held in Germany on Friday, said Egyptian Tourism Adviser in Germany Tamer Marzouk.

Speaking to MENA, Marzouk said that Egypt will have its own pavilion with the aim to promote tourism to the country.

During the event, Egyptian art shows will be held and souvenirs will be distributed, he added.

The Egyptian diplomat denied reports that tourist trips to Egypt were canceled after the failed attempt to attack the Karnak Temple in the Upper Egyptian city of Luxor.
