While they have a friendly appeal, the houseboats softly rocking on the Nile actually have a long history in all kinds of activities throughout many centuries.
As I approached the houseboats, walking along borders of the river Nile, I realized that they were not readily accessible. Between the boats and the street lay an area of small gardens, with fences and doors guarding them from the outside world. It immediately gave the impression of a closed community. Great for whoever lives in them, but unfortunately, hard to reach for outsiders. In fact, as I approached a fence to see if I could take pictures, a guard came out to indicate that I was not supposed to take pictures. I walked on, until I reached the end of the long row of houseboats.
