Islamic Monuments in Cairo: The Practical Guide (Updated 7th Edition)

Cairoâ€™s Islamic monuments are part of an uninterrupted tradition that spans over a thousand years of building activity. No other Islamic city can equal Cairoâ€™s spectacular heritage, nor trace its historical and architectural development with such clarity. The discovery of this historic core, first visually by nineteenth-century western artists, then intellectually by twentieth-century Islamic art specialists, now awaits the delight of the general visitor.
This new, fully revised edition of a popular and handy guide continues to walk the visitor around more than two hundred of the cityâ€™s most interesting Islamic monuments. It also keeps pace with recent restoration initiatives and newly opened monuments.
