This is an amazing oasis in Giza, just off the road to Sakkara Pyramid, containing unbelievable tapestries and batiks. It is the most genuine place I have visited in Egypt, with real art and crafts and none of this cheap rubbish you find in a lot of other places. Visitors must be careful as there are no less than twenty imitation shops and centres on the main road, but when you reach this place in Harania you will know. It's in a 10-acre lush, green area and has beautiful architecture.

This is the oldest hotel in Cairo, with a really cool bar and a manual elevator. It has a nice, genuine colonial atmosphere.
