Islamic Cairo Half Day Tour

Khan El Khalili has a rich history that dates back to the 14th century. It was established as a major trading hub during the Mamluk era and has since been a center for commerce and exchange. The market district has witnessed centuries of trade, cultural interactions, and historical events, making it an important part of Cairo's heritage.

Although there isn't a strict clothing requirement when visiting Islamic Cairo, it's still a good idea to dress politely and modestly, especially when entering mosques. Men and women alike should make sure their knees and shoulders are covered. It can also be necessary for women to wear scarves over their hair. It is advised to wear comfortable footwear because there may be walking involved.

In order to obtain a tourist visa, you must visit the Egyptian Embassy. Upon arrival in Egypt, visitors from other countries, including Australia, Brazil, Malaysia, Western Europe, North America, and others, are eligible to apply for a tourist visa.

Some of the most famous buildings in Cairo from a long time ago are the big Mosque-School of Sultan Hasan, the Mosque of Amir al-Maridani, the Mosque of Sultan al-Mu'ayyad (which has two tall towers above the entrance), the Sultan Al-Ghuri area, and the special place where Sultan Qaytbay is buried in the North.

The mosque was named after a commander and was built a long time ago in Egypt as the main building in a new city. It was the first mosque in Egypt and one of the first in Africa.
