About Khan el-Khalili
A lamp catches your eye, another shop appears and the small souvenir starts demanding a rethink of your suitcase. Khan el-Khalili is a network of shopping streets with fabrics, souvenirs and metal objects. The stroll pays off more if you don't look for a single main entrance.
Go in with no obligation to buy and compare quality and price before bargaining. A break at a cafe lets you watch the bustle without turning every aisle into a chore. Combine it with Al-Azhar and Al-Muizz, remembering that shops, cafes and monuments don't necessarily keep the same hours.
