This magnificent Egyptian capital attracts millions of visitors and tourists annually. For those who find Egyptian folklore and history fascinating, Cairo is a dream destination. Here are a few reasons why Cairo is a perfect vacation destination for everyone.
- The wildlife population in Egypt is simply spectacular. As a result of the severe nature of the desert and as a result of hunting activities, a lot of the species are endangered. This means that there are few of them left, and they have made Egypt their home.
Some interesting animals to look out for are fennec, whales, dolphins, long-eared hedgehogs, the Nile crocodile, and the Nubian Ibex.
- As the largest Arabian metropolis, Cairo has mouthwatering delicacies from various corners of the Middle East. The local sweets and pastries shops are a major attraction to tourists. A few Egyptian delicacies to look out for are:
- Taamiya/ Egyptian falafel (which pairs wonderfully with tahina)
- Hawashi (this meaty delight will blow your mind)
- Mesakaa
- Feteer meshaltet
- Egypt has one of the most epic histories of all modern regions originating from ancient civilizations. From the world-famous pyramids, and the spectacular Sphinx of Giza, to the magnificent Valleys of Kings and Queens, there is so much to see.
