Cairo
is the largest city in egypt Here you can always roll back the centuries Modern
cairo has tall buildings and broad streets equal to any in the capitals of
europe or australia From the top floors of impresive blocks of flats you can
gaze at magnificent views across the river nile.
However
behind the modern buildings are narrow alleys where there is no sound of
traffic The only sounds that come to your ears are the calls of the
stall-holders Water sellers and herdsmen wander through the streets as their
forefathers did thousands of years ago Many of the poorer people still dress in
the same way as their ancesters
