Cairo
The Vibrant Capital of Egypt

Cairo, the capital of Egypt, is located at the Nile River 15 km south of the area where the river divides into the two streams of Damietta and Rosetta and the beginning of the Nile delta.

With an estimated population of 15-17 million (1994) it is one of the largest cities in the world. It is the cultural, political, administrative, industrial and tourist centre of not only Egypt but all the Middle East.

In and around the city the attractions are plenty:
    Khan el-Khalili Bazaar
    The Pyramids of Giza
    Memphis and Saqqara
    Christian Monuments
    Islamic Monuments
    Modern Attractions

The oldest part of the city is situated on the flat country between the Nile River and the Muqattam mountain on the east bank.

From here the city has spread approximately 35 kilometres north and southbound along the Nile. At the western bank it has spread down to the Giza plateau and The Pyramids.

The Nile islands of Zamalek and Roda are a completely integrated part of the city.

Along the Nile you will find modern skyscrapers and luxury hotels while the old city with its narrow streets, the Khan el-Khalili bazaar and the religious university al-Azhar is to be found only a few kilometres away.

The climate in the city is warm, dry and pleasant compared to other Middle Eastern cities. This has made the city a popular refuge for Persian Gulf Arabs during the summer.
