The Gold District is still the first choice for thousands of locals to do business, so get your bargain. Open from early morning to sundown (except Friday morning and Sunday).
It’s best to go when the sun is setting, around 4 or 5 PM. Great way to spend a few hours in a relaxed environment, where you have a perfect view over the whole city of Cairo.
Take the metro line that goes to Helwan and get off at Mar Girgis Station, the fortress is the first sight in front of you.
Don’t miss the Cairo Tower, a distinctive landmark visible from most of downtown Cairo.
