Destacados

Its a chance to discover Islamic Cairo, also known as Medieval Cairo, Built in 969 by the Fatimid Kings who subsequently turned it into a royal enclosure, not far from Futstat, which had by then been adopted as the country's economic and administrative capital. It served as Egypt's capital from 750 to 868. During the years that followed, the area grew to become the regional center for Islam and as a result, several mosques and other Islamic monuments were constructed. It is primarily due to this that the area came to be known as Islamic Cairo. Whatever you do, don't expect Islamic Cairo to be anything like modern day downtown Cairo. The two areas are quite literally worlds apart, but in a way that makes it even more necessary to explore this ancient district.

About Guiza

Guiza, en las afueras de El Cairo, alberga la Gran Pirámide, la Esfinge y una meseta desértica que atrae a viajeros desde hace milenios.

La meseta alberga tres grandes pirámides, construidas para los faraones Keops, Kefrén y Micerinos, junto con pirámides menores de reinas y hileras de tumbas de nobles. La Gran Pirámide de Keops es la última de las Siete Maravillas del Mundo Antiguo que sigue en pie, y la Gran Esfinge vigila más abajo, tallada en la roca junto al templo del valle de Kefrén.

Top-ranked sights in Guiza: Sphinx (Great Sphinx of Giza), Giza Pyramids, Great Pyramid of Giza (Khufu Pyramid).
