Khan EL Khalili Bazaar
The Khan El-Khalili is one of the most interesting bazaars, not only in Egypt, but also in the Middle East.
It was named after Prince Jaharkas
Al-Khalili, who was one of the powerful.jpg)
Mamluke Princes in the 14th century. It is
famous for its unusual, typically oriental
souvenirs, and handmade crafts. The Medieval
atmospheres of this traditional market,
together with the labyrinth layout of the
streets, gives visitors o lot of pleasure
and a glimpse into what medieval markets
once were like.
Cafes, restaurants, shops, and large number
of vendors and buyers constitute a dynamic
panorama of the place. Drinking Hibiscus,
Karakare, Helba, or any of the various
typical Egyptian beverages, is a pleasant
experience for visitors and guests to get a
real taste experience. For smokers, there is
the Shisha, or water pipe, to be tried. .jpg)
Every visitor can take the opportunity to safely enjoy the walk through the narrow streets of Khan El-Khalili. We strongly recommend visiting this vivid bazaar, but keep in mind that in open traditional markets, the prices are not fixed; remember to bargain (haggle) to get the best price. The Khan El-Khalili Bazaar is place where art and commerce come together to give a unique and remarkable, harmonious experience.
