The Islamic art decorates every piece of the mosque, making it a beautiful sight to be visited during Egypt travel packages.
Then, we will start moving toward the area of Old Cairo to see the Hanging Church of the Virgin Mary, which is not lying on the ground, it's lying above the ruins of the Babylon towers, hiding the history inside each rock. You will be amazed by the architecture and the art inside the church, passing by the antique wooden doors, reaching the marble columns.
Our next destination is Abu Serga church, or the cavern church. It is a humble church surrounded by a wooden door and made of the rock stones, hiding history and secrets inside each corner.
