“The Mother of the Earth”
Cairo is not only Egypt's capital and largest metropolis in Africa but also the political, economic, and cultural center of the Middle East. When you visit this multicultural melting pot, you will experience fascinating contrasts: the emerging and pulsating city on the one hand and the millennia-old history and its buildings on the other. When you cross the Nile in Cairo, you move from one megacity to the next, because on the west bank is Giza with the pyramids.
Kairo Ausflug Pyramiden – Kairo Pyraminden
The pyramids are the only remaining one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. They have been Egypt's symbol for thousands of years. Even before the pyramids were built, the guardian of the dead was already in place: the famous Sphinx. This colossal monument depicts a lying lion with a royal head and mane.

Ägyptisches Museum Kairo – Tagestour nach Kairo
Another highlight of your stay in Cairo is the visit of Ägyptischen Museums. The museum tour runs clockwise from the Old Kingdom to the Late Period. The undisputed highlights are Tutankhamun's grave treasures, such as his richly decorated mask and gilded sarcophagus.
Cairo -Egypt Sights
The mighty citadel stands on Saladin Square. There, high above the city, sits Cairo's most outstanding sight, the Alabaster Mosque. A short visit to the Al-Hussein Mosque is also worthwhile. Important note: Visiting the mosque with off-the-shoulder clothing and uncovered knees is not permitted.
Cairo-Al Azhar Mosque
However, the most important Islamic mosque, just opposite the bazaar, is the El-Azhar Mosque “The Blooming One”. It is not only a mosque but also a university that is over 1,000 years old and is one of the most important and oldest Islamic universities in the world.
