About Cairo

Cairo is the capital and largest city of Egypt and one of the most important cities in the Middle East and Africa. Located along the Nile River, it is a huge, bustling metropolis where ancient history and modern life exist side by side. With millions of residents, Cairo is known for its busy streets, lively markets, historic neighborhoods and distinctive skyline.

Cairo, City of Ancient Wonders

Cairo is often called the gateway to ancient Egypt. Just outside the city stand the world-famous Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx, reminders of one of humanity's oldest civilizations. Within Cairo itself, visitors can explore historic mosques, churches, museums and the atmospheric streets of Islamic Cairo. The Egyptian Museum and the Nile waterfront add even more to the city's cultural appeal.

Despite its ancient roots, Cairo is far from being a city frozen in the past. Modern shopping centers, restaurants, cafés, universities and entertainment venues contribute to a vibrant urban culture. The combination of extraordinary history, warm climate, Egyptian hospitality and the ever-present Nile makes Cairo one of the world's most fascinating capital cities.
