Khan El-khalili bazzar


One of the most interesting bazaars not only in Egypt but in the Middle East. It was named after Prince Jaharkas Al Khalili, who was one of the powerful Mamluke princes in the 14th century. It is famous for its unusual, typical oriental souvenirs and handmade crafts. The Medieval atmospheres of this traditional market together with the labyrinth layout of the streets, gives visitors great pleasure and glimpse into what medieval markets 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 nice experience for visitors and guests to get a real experience. For the smokers there is the Shisha or the water pipe to be tried.
 
Each visitor can take the opportunity to enjoy safely the walk through the narrow streets of Khan EL Khalili.
We recommend visiting this vivid place but keep in mind that in open traditional markets the prices are not fixed.

Remember to bargain to get best price.. Khan EL Khalili Bazaar is place where art and commerce come together to give a unique and  remarkable experience.
