Information About Cairo at Night

Cairo Night is characterized by a glamorous nighttime atmosphere that you have not found in any other country. This makes it one of the reasons why we bring large numbers of tourists annually for their holidays and summer holidays in Cairo Night. This makes it the title of "Cairo Watchful".

The vibrant city of Cairo is one of Africa's largest and most populated cities. The city's amazing pyramids, many captivating minarets and the never-ending River Nile make it a paradise for every arrower of culture. Egypt's capital city, Cairo, is a bustling metropolis with constant movement. Cairo Nightlife exudes a distinct vitality that is perceptible in various senses. Here are a few of Cairo's top things to do at night: 

One of the most beautiful views of Cairo at night is the luminous Nile boats and the lights of the night on the streets of the centre of the country, and the old ones passing over the River Nile.

Although cruise ships are the most popular with tourists when they are in Cairo, there is another more traditional way to navigate on the Nile: aboard a falucca. If you want to have a truly unforgettable experience, I recommend that you book a falucca ride on the Nile, one of these boats to watch the sunset from the river. Early evening is when most Nile River Dinner Cruises begin, and they run for about two or three hours. The amiable crew greets guests as they board the ship, which often begins at the piers close to the city center.

Khan el Khalili is located in what is called Islamic Cairo. Its shops and boutiques are scattered in a large number of narrow streets and winding alleys. Getting lost is more a possibility than an inevitability. There are also beautiful mosques, as well as workshops where artisans work and sell their products in the market. Shops do not close at sunset and the market district has a different atmosphere when traditional metal lanterns are lit.

Near Khan el Khalili is another must-see place in the Cairo nightlife: Al Moez Street (you may see the name spelled differently, because Arabic transcriptions are not easy on vowels). It is an unforgettable experience to walk the kilometre or so of this street when the coloured lights are on.

Al Moez Street was closed to traffic in 2008, increasing the already considerable flow of traffic. Along the street you will see several small architectural gems, all beautifully illuminated. Don’t miss the Al Hakim bi Amr Allah mosque, Al-Aqmar mosque, Al Nasir Muhammad madrasa and the Qalawun complex.
Another building to see is Beit al-Suhaymi, a house (this is the meaning of beit) built in 1648 and considered one of the finest examples of Ottoman architecture in the city.
