Egypt
Egypt|
On a plateau overlooking Cairo, the Citadel is in the medieval part of the city. This fortress was begun by Saladin in the 12th century and housed Egypt's rulers for 700 years. The view is fantastic and it gave us our first glimpse of the Pyramids in the far distance. The site houses several small museums and three mosques, including the Alabaster Mosque of Mohamed Ali. |
