In Egypt in mind-Cairo impression http://blog.sina.com.cn/dakexiaoqi

A vast swathe of the mosque, busy roads, the bustling crowd, this is the city of Cairo.

Egypt 80 million, of which the population living in Cairo has 20 million, Cairo has become the world's population density of the largest cities.

Such a high density of population, plus easily cannot be dismantled two thousand mosques, resulting in Cairo city road conditions are very complex and crowded.

Traffic jam is a common occurrence. All the rows to be seen outside the window to drill to drill in the car, our drivers is also a practicing subsidiaries, regular and close to the vehicle maintain two to three centimeters to see people getting scared. Cairo traffic complexity is world famous, many travels to the detailed description, but didn't see amazing. Basic no signs along the way, the red line is equal to the Basic, non-motorized road vehicle basic equal to, equal to the basic driver side road warriors. So the road occurred rubs hopscotch, many vehicles are after about a piece of scratches, appears to be the result of the long-term battle. No more Cairo driver's quality is high, the little Horn, rarely quarrel, a quiet battle in the street, don't have a flavor. If you have an accident, the two drivers usually get a hug, praise God, mutual sympathy, and then handle the traffic accident. Along the way, I did not find the traffic, only the tourism police and soldiers.

Bugs Bunny in the afternoon, we arrive at the hotel-is located in Cairo JISA district.

Cairo city has old and new city and three district JISA, suburbs there are also several satellite locations. Most of the Cairo white-collar has been moved to the city, stay in the area of Government organs, enterprises and institutions, is the old people, many are living not rich. JISA district is located on the southwest side of the city of Cairo, the famous pyramids in this area.

Hotel general conditions is to visit the worst hotel, accommodation in two days, so I also broke a water, a power-off.

However not affect mood, after all, most of the time or outside. I eat supper, and LP opened Cairo map, circled several areas, such as Muhammad Ali mosque, Liberation square, the Arab League headquarters, Sultan Hassan mosque, and so on, and then to the hotel lobby provides a taxi.

The driver was a young man, very talkative, but English pronunciation is localized, my English pronunciation is also very localized, so we often jiligulu silly talk.

A taxi from the strict sense, not because it is a similar to a car by private car. The car is very new, very clean. Even drivers escort is 150 El lbs, than playing cars more expensive, but a high security. The driver took us a good turn for four hours, we say place where to go, we will explain some of the content. I was shocked to Sultan Hassan mosque of the gate. Majestic stands of the mosque, the great gate, devout Muslim, black giant banner white Scripture, religious so dignified and sacred! driver told us that it is not in the mosque and high or low. Rich each time to the mosque to the door of the case of money, every major holiday, mosques around the poor people will gather to pray in the box on the allocation of money, and then distributed to the poor. At first I thought it was just one line, but, particularly in the mosque door stay really see drivers that scenario, see the rich people put money in to the box. How to distinguish between rich and poor, in fact, from wearing robes we see very clearly.

The front says Cairo traffic is not good, it'll be nagging nagging, the driver took us around to the 12 o'clock at night, also a traffic jam, traffic.

However this climate is also a great relationship, Cairo shops are open in the evening. In Cairo and American Theatre on the road in front of the driver pointed to a woman standing on the roadside, said that this is a Chinese. He said that the Chinese are very ill, not English, not fact, alone to Cairo Maverick could soon have their own piece of paradise. I quietly listen, there is a kind of speechless feeling ... ...

Unfinished, to be continued.
