See the influence that Islam and Christianity have had on modern day Cairo


Attractions and things to do - Islamic and Christian Cairo Tour

Set out on a tour of Cairo and visit the places that were instrumental in the evolution of Christianity and some important Islamic monuments. The Coptic Museum in old Cairo houses a rare collection of the first Christian relics, architectural ruins, textiles, icons and old manuscripts. The Suspended Church of El Moallaqa, built at the turn of the 4th century, is worth a visit. Standing on the remains of the Roman fortress of Babylon, it houses a beautiful wood carving depicting Jesus Christ entering Jerusalem.

Explore the two lavish houses from the 16th and 17th centuries that were once occupied and restored by John Gayer-Anderson, who renovated and furnished the houses with antiques, artwork and oriental artefacts which he acquired during his travels.
