The Coptic area in old Cairo, which includes the Hanging Church, dates back to the seventh century. The Hanging Church is also referred to as the Suspended Church or Al-Moallaqa. It is called the Hanging Church because it was built on the southern gate of the Roman Fortress.

Abu Sarga
Abu Sarga is the oldest church in Egypt, dating back to the 5th century A.D. The church owes its fame to having been constructed upon the crypt of the Holy Family, where they stayed for three weeks during their sojourn in Egypt.

The Church of St.Barbara

The church of St. Barbara is among the churches of Old Cairo of historic importance. It was originally dedicated to St. Cyrus and St. John, who were worshipped for their healing powers. A small church at the northeastern corner of the building commemorates these two martyrs. Documents from the 13th century mention that the relics of St. Barbara were kept in this church.

The citadel of Salah El Den

The Citadel is one of Cairo's main attractions and probably the most popular Islamic moment in Cairo. Salah El-Din built it in 1176 AD, the place of most of Egypt’s rulers for 700 years. Mohammed Ali was the last ruler in the citadel. Salah El-Din built the citadel to connect Cairo and Fustat to defend the city against the Crusaders. Still, the citadel’s construction was not finished during his lifetime, but it was completed during the era of Sultan Kamel.

Lunch is in an authentic restaurant in Khan El Khalili(This market dates back to the 14th century)then a walking tour from Khan El Khalili to Bab Zuweila

By the time of the powerful Fatimid vizier Badr al-Jamali, who ruled Egypt from 1074 to 1094, Cairo had outgrown the sun-dried brick wall of Jawhar. This, coupled with the attempts of the Turkoman Atsiz to take Cairo, among other threats from the East, spurred al-Jamali to rebuild the walls of the city. The Gate of Zuwayla, or the Bab Zuwayla, was the third gate built under al-Jamali. The Bab al-Futuh and Bab al-Nasr were built in 1087, and the Bab Zuwayla in 1092. The Bab al-Futuh and Bab Zuwayla mark the northern and southern limits respectively of the Fatimid city and function as termini for al-Mu'izz Street, the major Fatimid north-south spine of the city.

Abu Simbel is a temple built by Ramesses II (c.1279-1213 B.C.E.) in ancient Nubia, where he wished to demonstrate his power and his divine nature. Four colossal (65 feet/20 meters high) statues of him sit in pairs flanking the entrance. The head and torso of the statue to the left of the entrance fell during ancient times, probably the result of an earthquake. This temple faces the east, and Re-Horakhty, one manifestation of the sun god, is shown inside the niche directly above the entrance. The alignment of the temple is such that twice a year the sun's rays reach into the innermost sanctuary to illuminate the seated statues of Ptah, Amun-Re, Ramesses II, and Re-Horakhty.

The temple was cut out of the sandstone cliffs above the Nile River in an area near the Second Cataract. When the High Dam was being constructed in the early 1960s, international cooperation assembled funds and technical expertise to move this temple to higher ground so that the waters of Lake Nasser would not inundate it.
