Cairo

En nuestro tercer dia en la capital habiamos pensado ir al mercado de camellos de Birqash, pero sobre el papel parecia complicado llegar en transporte publico y ademas habia que madrugar mucho. Asi que decidimos pasar el ultimo dia visitando El Cairo islamico. Al ir a desayunar vemos que hay mucho movimiento en la plaza, parece que van a rodar una pelicula? un anuncio? Habra que descubrirlo... Nos

CHICAGO – The heroic nature of the James Bond series of films begs several questions about his representation of western world power. For one, just who did he act for and what was he fighting against? Rating: 3.0/5.0 The new French film “OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies” attempts to answer this question through a subtle and sporadically funny satire, a skewering of the Bond image and geopol

It seems that Cairo and its people will be the center of Thomas Friedman’s attention for a while as after his column that clearly did not have any effect on Obama , he continues to transfer the scene from Cairo. This time it is the economical scene , the dark scene of the riots and protests to get some few loaves of bread. To tell you the truth Friedman did not execrate as usual in fact he s

Our arrival into Cairo was not without snags. I was very worried that the beginning of our trip was going to be a sign of things to come. As it turns out, I was right. Egypt is fantastic. Our travel agent--not so much.After many phone calls back and forth in an attempt to obtain the correct information--everyone had a different story--we finally got things sorted. Eventually, our guide showed up and our time in Cairo was looking up. The rest of the day was completely surreal.I've always dreamed of seeing the pyramids. I was so glad that our guide made the whole trip so worth while.Connor standing in front of our hotel,see the pyramid behind himWe met our guide, Eman, at 9am and set off with two other couples. It was a small and friendly group. We became fast friends through our s

To Speak about weather, it is important to realize that in Egypt weather is different from one place to another/The high season for tourism in Egypt is in winter and spring. Weather in Egypt is perfect for many kinds of tourism, just try to avoid coming in June, July and August , as they are too hot: the temperatures can reach around 45 degrees C. and the humidity is about 70 to 80%.However, the period of high summer season is also crowded as hotels offer big discounts at this time or also because of the good rates for flights. It is also a primary vacation time in Europe, mainly in Spain. If you come in the deep summer season you can still enjoy it because you can always sightsee early in the morning and go again at night when the sun sets. You will definitely need good sunscreen and l

Cairo is the capital of Egypt. The city is officially known as al-Qahirah, which means "The Subduer". The Arab invaders seized it in 642 and gradually it grew into a small city and the North African Shi'i Fatimid Dynasty conquered it in 972. Later in 1100s the Seljuks captured Cairo and the city was further expanded. Baghdad was sacked in 1258 and this enhanced the importance of the city making it into an intellectual and artistic center in the Middle East. Cairo was the largest city in the world from 1315 to 1348. The Ottoman Empire took over the city in 1517 and later in the 17th and 18th centuries the Mameluks captured it. By 1798, Egypt was annexed by Napoleon, and Cairo was surrendered to him. The city was rebuilt during the era of colonization in 1882. It was the central city of Egy

Cairo (Arabic: القاهرة transliteration: Al-Qāhirah), which means "The Vanquisher" or "The Triumphant", is the capital city of Egypt. While Al-Qahirah is the official name of the city, in Egyptian Arabic it commonly shares the dialect's name for the country, transliteration: Masr. It has a metropolitan area population of about 17.285 million people. Cairo is the sixteenth most populous metropolitan area in the world. It is also the most populous metropolitan area in Africa .The city was founded in AD 969 as the royal enclosure for the Fatimid caliphs, while the actual economic and administrative capital was in nearby Fustat. After Fustat was destroyed in 1168/1169 to prevent its capture by the Crusaders, the administrative capital of Egypt moved to Cairo, where it has remained ever since.Residents of Cairo are called Cairenes.

It’s loud, it’s dirty, it’s chaotic - it’s Cairo and I love it! What the…?!? Expecting the worst but hoping for the best, our Cairo experience really began in the departure lounge for Singapore Airlines flight 492 at Changi Airport. As the announcement that boarding was about to commence boomed over the speakers, there was a stampede to the gate, everyone eager to get on the plane NOW! Having already flown 7.5 hours from Sydney, with a 4 hour “transit” in Singapore, My husband Eamonn and I were bemused with our fellow passengers and their eagerness to spend as much time as possible on the plane. Eventually all were on board and the flight passed uneventfully, touching down in Cairo far too many hours later. As the wheels touched down loud applause echoed through the cabin, shortly followed by the click-click of seatbelts being unbuckled. For the next few minutes as the plane decelerated and taxied to the gate, frantic flight attendants stalk

El Cairo (en árabe,القاهرة Al-Qāhira "la fuerte") es la ciudad capital de Egipto y de su gobernación (muhafazah o provincia). Es la mayor ciudad del mundo árabe y de África, y los egipcios la denominan a menudo sencillamente con el nombre del país, مصر, árabe culto Misr, en el árabe de Egipto Masr.El Cairo está ubicado en las riberas e islas del río Nilo, al sur del delta (30°3′0"N, 31°15′40"E). Hacia el sudoeste se encuentra la ciudad de Giza y la antigua necrópolis de Menfis, con la meseta de Giza y sus monumentales pirámides, como la Gran Pirámide. Al sur se encuentra el lugar donde se edificó la antigua ciudad de Menfis. Cuenta con numerosas universidades, teatros, monumentos y museos: el más importante es el Museo Egipcio, situado en la plaza Tahrir que alberga la mejor colección del mundo de objetos del antiguo Egipto. Actualmente se está planteando su traslado a un edificio mayor, en la zona de Giza.En 1979, el centro histórico de El Cairo fue d

It would seem that the Baron's Palace in Greater Cairo, after the Great Pyramid and Sphinx of Giza, is subject to more fables, legends and rumors than any other monument in Egypt. I was astounded to hear from a guide, who was very serious, that the old palace was build upon a type of turnstile that would rotate the whole building so that its windows were always facing the sun. Of course, that was urban legend in Cairo, but for many years, this building in Heliopolis has ignited the imagination of the local population with all manner of fables, legends and rumors.Today, the Baron’s Hindu Palace remains the subject of countless rumors. From time to time new rumors spread about this landmark which has been deserted for many years. It’s haunted by bats, stray dogs, and others believe by ghosts. And while the place attracts some architects for it richness, it also seems to have attracted teenagers for their wild parties. They would break into the place on weekends, drink beer and smoke

Finding great travel tales often entails getting a little dirty. The best stories are the ones that smell, the kind you can’t hope to spot from inside an air conditioned tour bus. Get down on your hands and knees and poke around, dig into the muck-heap, grab on to something and pull it out into the light. After you wipe off the grime, you might just see a buried treasure, a story full of hope and resonance and truth that most people would never think was there. This week Tales From the Road gets down and dirty, hitting up backpacker ghettos in Hong Kong and Bangkok and diving deep into the garbage dumps of Cairo before swinging back to the Americas and passing out at a Jamaican reggae concert. The roundup wraps up with an emotional punch, a tribute to the mothers of Argentinian activists who were tortured and killed by a military dictatorship during the “Dirty War.” Got all your shots? Then come down from that sterile tour bus, breathe in the stink, dirty yo

The latest show starring Gamal Mubarak was a sudden conference called "Cairo 2050" The conference was about the future plans for Cairo ,the capital of Egypt till the year 2050 Future planning is very important in any country and it is good to see that the officials are doing it but again what is the role of Gamal Mubarak in this planning officially ?? He is a only the general secretary of the policies committee in the NDP , anyhow we all know that he is ruling Egypt unofficially Ironically after the news coverage of the event ,I met many people who had one question , in fact it was a reflection for their fear "Is he going to rule us till the year 2050 ??!!" Another nightmare , not only the present or the near future but the far future Not our kids but our grand children too Another question "Is he going to plan for Future Cairo so he can sell it ?? Another question "Is he going to make Cairo for rich only??" These sarcastic questions are reflection for what the Egyptian Peo

It happened a few weeks ago, but I'm only ready to talk about it now.My sick kitty Cairo died.The whole household was so distraught (my DH, MIL, our other cat Suki, and dog Piffy) that I decided on a distraction.I'd like you to meet Simba. He fits in like butter on warm toast.He's actually suckling on his tail. He's a rescue. Loves life and playing like there's no tomorrow.Here he's fanning his feet (making bread/kneading) while suckling.Suki loved him from the moment we brought him home. The first day Suki kept running up to Simba and licking him, then running away. In this picture they're caught in the act of playing. Potential LOLCat pics I think.Life is so fragile. Enjoy every moment. Love yourself.

três perpectivas da cidade apartir dos viadutos (ler post anterior):os típicos prédios por acabar. A razão para ninguém acabar os prédios e que só se começa a pagar impostos quando se termina a obra. Assim sendo... as janelas ficam por acabar ou não se pinta ou deixa-se um pilares à mostra...um cruzamento de viadutos... e uma das muitas mesquitas. O Cairo está pejado de mesquitas grandiosas como esta. (photos shot in Cairo)

.O Cairo tem fama de ter um trânsito incrível, de ninguém respeitar qualquer regra de trânsito conhecida por um ocidental e de todos os carros andarem amassados. É tudo verdade. As deslocações pela cidade são autênticas descargas de adrenalina. À beira disto, bumby-jumping é para meninos.de forma a melhorar um pouco o trânsito, todo o centro da cidade é sobrevoado por muitos viadutos que permitem que se chegue a algum ponto do centro e de ele se fuja com alguma rapidez ("egiptian time"). É de facto um sistema de viadutos bem complexo e bem engenhoso. Em alguns pontos três ou quatro viadutos crazam-se, uns passam ao nível do 1º andar, outros do 2º e outro ainda mais acima. Sem estes viadutos, imagino que o trânito pura e simplesmente pararia.Note-se que alguns dos viadutos têm vários kilómetros. Como eu gostava que fosse feito um viaduto assim entre Matosinhos e a avenida da Boavista...(photo shot in Cairo)

Mais umas fotos de ontem à noite. Este local é mesmo excelente. Para além do meu quarto o único onde não ouço o contínuo buzinar...e vai a primeira, da mesquita de Mohamed Ali à distância. Este senhor foi um sultão do Egipto que mesmo sendo subordinado do sultão de Istambul decidiu começar a consquistar todos os territórios do império Otomano. Um senhor cheio de maneiras cuja primeira medida como governante foi convidar todos os 4.000 chefes militares do Egipto para jantar e mata-los todos nessa noite pela calada. Pode-se dizer que sabia receber... Nesta foto pode-se encontrar uma série de mesquitasiluminadas, bem bonitas. Este fim de semana reparei em dezenas de igrejas espalhadas pelo Cairo. Pelo que me disseram, a percentagem de cristãos oficial é muito inferior à oficial. Na foto abaixo, pode-se ver parte da muralha da citadela e o luzeiro sem fim da cidade do Cairo. Oficialmente o grande-Cairo tem 14 milhões de habitantes. Ao que consta a demografia oficial est

Hoje em dia tem restaurantes (inacessíveis para a classe média local) e grandes parques com vistas sobre a cidade.

Ao fim de uns dias já deu para perceber que a tinta deve ser caríssima por estas bandas. São quarteirões sem fim sem pinga de tinta. Se conhecerem alguém que fabrique tintas para os lados de Santarém avisem, e essa pessoa que mande aqui uns comerciais. As estradas são autênticos museus revivalistas dos anos 60 em Portugal. Pelo estado em que os carros estão devem ser os mesmos que por aí andaram...Quanto ao famoso trânsito do Cairo... entrando na onda é de partir a rir. Amanhã, destino Alexandria. Sábado vou às pirâmides!!(photo shot in Cairo)

muito simples. O mais pesado primeiro. Em caso de empate, passa quem arrancar primeiro e buzinar mais. Em caso de novo empate, um toque e vai cada um à sua vida.

Deddy loved to hunt deers over off the truck route, down Tower Road by the power lines, long before them places was in town. Back then, just seein' a deer was a big deal. These days you lucky if you can ride out Highway 12 and not end up with one as a hood ornament.One chilly afternoon Deddy and my older brother came home after bagging two bucks in one day, which was unheard of.
