One of the historical areas of Cairo, Darb al-Ahmar offers the opportunity to get an idea of how Cairo must have been in the late Middle Ages.
The area retained its residential character, but went into decline overtime. Now, its population is amongst the poorest of the city, and some of the houses are in an incredibly bad state. All the same, it is a very lively area, and walking through it is sheer pleasure for the eye and the ear. Egyptians dressed in traditional and modern clothes walk by, those on a horse or donkey-pulled cart shout to announce their arrival and sometimes you can see a horse coming at you while it is trying to avoid collision with one coming from behind.
