In one of the most Islamic cities in the Middle East, a christian neighbourhood can be found.
The Nile is not around anymore as it moved to the west, but excavations have revealed the remains of a quay just outside the walls around Coptic Cairo. Unfortunately, when I was here a lot of repair works were being done, so there was a lot of noise, drilling and dust in the air. Nevertheless, I visited the Hanging Church, or Al-Muallaqa. Built on top of the water gate of Roman Babylon, this church dates back 16 centuries, although the outside would not reveal that age.
