It's amazing to walk around this market thinking it's been pretty similar since the middle ages. The smells and sights are infectious and you'll want to wander for hours so leave plenty of time for your visit!

The major souk in the district of Cairo has become a major tourist attraction. The stalls, shop owners, smells, sights are all quite mind blowing, such a different experience to anything in the UK. WE stopped for coffee and shisha which was a lot of fun.

This is the main market place of Cairo and whilst a popular tourist destination is very traditional- you should dress and act with modesty. Its really fascinating to see how the market life works and the plentitude of food, clothes and spices on sale.
