the River Nile near the head of the river's delta
in northern Egypt and has been settled for
more than 6,000 years, serving as the capital
of numerous Egyptian kingdoms. Cairo is
known locally as "Misr," which is the Arabic

Outside the city's central area on the east bank are the

neighborhoods are known for their narrow streets, crowded
markets (bazaars), and hundreds of mosques, many

Christian community, and the site of the Coptic Museum plus
