One of the most impressive things about my trip to Boise was my evening at the movies. Now, as seasoned travelers, many of you are probably looking at this tip funny. Why would something as simple as going to the movies, which you can do anywhere be special? The Egyptian Theater is one of the last of its kind in the country, where the picture being show is not nearly as exciting to tourists as the intricate walls and architecture of the theater itself. For a brief moment, you think you are actually in Cairo with all of the statues and heiroglyphics on the walls. This building was opened for business in 1927, and is still running strong today. It also was added to the National Historic Register in the 70's.

Great tip on the Egyptian, Mark, & nice shot of it! I don't know if it's still there, but there used to be an old organ up front for accompanying silent movies. I actually played it once when the theatre was closed - very fun!!! | Yaqui Wed Jan 26, 2005 15:59 UTC
