I am reposting this from 2014 as it is fun to re-read some of our travels.
November 2007 - Cairo Egypt
A day at the souks in Cairo. I love markets and we had firm orders from our guide not to buy any gold!!!
Khan el-Khalili is a major souk in the Islamic district of Cairo. The bazaar district is one of Cairo's main attractions for tourists and Egyptians alike.
Incredibly busy, and eclectic!
ReplyDeleteWhat draws my eye is that cat.
Wonderful photos. I haven't been to Cairo. The photos remind me quite a bit of Morocco.
ReplyDeleteVisiting a bit late from Travel photos Monday.
Jackie, Cairo abounds in overload. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. Love the line of children. Not my favourite city - couldn't even manage to cross the road.
ReplyDeleteWe didn't dare cross the street either!
Delete...Jackie, what an exotic adventure! The sights are wonderful, take care and enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteLooks really busy, but very interesting shopping. Love the kitty.
ReplyDeleteLooks like an amazing place to visit.
