So much to see and explore in Cairo. I have heard much about Cairo but never before about the bazaars. They were very very very nice and full of the most incredible things. Items made out of bronze and nice trinkets made from hand. It was like it came out of an old movie, I did not think that bazaars like that were real. We got amazing things that we bargained down the prices for. We took nice day trips to see the majestic pyramids and the sphinx. High standing with great presence and power. There were a number of lovely mosques and old churches to see in addition. Inside it looked like old days that were preserved very nicely. My mother took fancy to Al-Azhar Park where there was perfect greenery placed in the middle of the tan colored city. It had special water characteristics and buildings of unique architecture. A must do on my suggestion agenda is the Imhotep Museum. We have been hearing about him in text books for centuries and it was nice going to a place of things of him that you can see face to face. Cairo is a superb holiday destination and I tell any I see to go.Cairo, Egypt A trip before a trip Rating: 8/10

Last winter I had the honor to spend 10 days in Cairo, Egypt with my mother and two sisters. It was my last trip with them before I flew off to graduate school and it was a trip that I will always remember. Cairo is the capital of Egypt and is one of the biggest cities in Africa. It gave us so much to do from night life to day trips around the entire city. On our first day we marveled at the beautiful Roman, Jewish and Islamic history seen in the buildings and expressed in the words of our tour guide. Later, we got to see the place where the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus rested after their journey from Palestine. We got to visit the Nile and actually collect some of the water as souvenir; my sister wanted to take a sip for adventure sake. Another cool story that I got to tell my friends was how amazing were the Pyramids and the Sphinx that you can see on a day tour. And don't get me started on the food. You must try Koshari which is their version of fast food. After lunch hang out at the hanging church then hop over to Coptic Museum. And sleep?..no one really sleeps in Cairo. The Bailey girls had a great time there together and want to come back when the Bailey boys make their trip. Cairo, Egypt Rating: 7/10

Egypt has always facinated me with all the stories about it being the most advanced civilisation and all that stuff. I luckily got a chance to visit Cairo this month and it was a very pleasent experience. Although it is a pretty crowded city, it is very different from the other cities i a have visited. The city is developing very rapidly and has become very modern in terms of its transport system and buildings. If you go to Cairo you must go to the Egyptian Museum its absolutely fantastic. the Cairo Tower is a pleasant site to view and make sure you do some shopping at the markets, yu can pick up really cool stuff at bargain prices. |
