Dec 12, 2022, 12:44 PM
Located in the heart of Al-Qahira, the old walled city, Khan el-Khalili night bazaar is the place to stimulate your imagination and go hunting for treasures.
Unlike many other Middle Eastern street markets, this bazaar has always been a place that mixes the commercial, religious and domestic. Spending an evening in the labyrinthine streets of this night bazaar will give you a great insight into Cairo life - immerse yourself into the cacophony of deafening sounds that the city has to offer while sipping tea in a local cafe.
