Cairo - The Mother of the World, Egypt | Treasures of the World

Whoever has not seen Cairo has not seen the world. Its soil is gold, its Nile a wonder, its houses are palaces, its air soft and fragrant like aloe wood. And how could Cairo be any different, for it is "the mother of the world"? Or so it says in the tales of One Thousand and One Nights. This video captures that magic, exploring the markets and mosques of Egypt’s capital while recounting some of the many legends that surround the city. Cairo is a place filled with countless stories — stories as old as the city itself. Among its more than 500 mosques, some date back as far as the ninth and tenth centuries. ------- Chapters ▷ 00:00 - Intro ▷ 00:04 - Cairo, Egypt #documentary #unesco #treasuresoftheworld #heritageofmankind #cairo #egypt #pyramid #history #mosque #islam #architecture #ancient #middleeast #1001nights ------- Watch all documentaries of the series in our playlist: https://bit.ly/treasures_of_the_world Subscribe to wocomoTRAVEL: https://goo.gl/tIk2Qc Follow us on Facebook:   / wocomo   ------- UNESCO has been protecting the world's most valuable natural and cultural monuments as the "Heritage of Humanity" since 1972.
