Cairo

To visit Cairo is to immerse yourself in a city where ancient history meets vibrant modernity. The sense of cultural richness and resilience is palpable, evident in its bustling markets, stunning architecture, and ongoing development projects. Founded over 1,000 years ago, Cairo has evolved into a pivotal centre for trade, education, and tourism in the Arab world, boasting iconic landmarks such as the Pyramids of Giza and the historic Islamic Cairo district. Despite challenges faced in recent decades, including political changes and economic fluctuations, the city continues to thrive, attracting international businesses and fostering a dynamic arts scene. However, the rapid urbanisation has also led to significant challenges, including traffic congestion and infrastructural strain, making everyday life a complex balancing act for its residents. The cost of living in Cairo reflects these conditions, impacting both locals and visitors alike.
