Places to See in Cairo: 1
Believe it or not, Cairo is one of those places that should really be on everyone’s must see list of travel destinations. It is rather like a Russian nesting doll, in that there is a succession of magical worlds to discover, many nestled within another and another. Cairo is charming, it contradicts itself; it is beautiful, noisy, crowded, and mysterious. It is everything you would expect from a place that is seven thousand years old.
Central Cairo is a particular must see, although it is still fairly young. There are museums, theatres, art galleries, and much, much more.
For a taste of history, Old Cairo is absolutely necessary. It is the link connecting the Islamic period with the Pharaonic period.
