Cairo Chaos,beep beep!

by hayward68 - last update: Jun 10, 2004

What can I say about Cairo? It's a seething mass of humanity, the home of most of Egypt's population and a loud, crazy, incredible place. The traffic is a nightmare, the sights are legendary and the people are warm and welcoming. There is so much to see and do and I didn't even scratch the surface of what is available. From the first glimpse out the bus window on the ride from the airport, to the last look from the plane, it's a fascinating city that manages to work its way under your skin till you suddenly find yourself not wanting to leave.

 Great tips! Egyptian Museum and visit to interior of the pyramide is a must for me now. I wonder whether I can bring and use a tripod there.

 Nice Cairo tips! Interesting - I did not know the Sphinx' arabic name. It's strange, since I've always thought of it as female, and it really is "Father of Terror"! :-) Best wishes, Eve & Ash
