Europe
and Asia, the city of Istanbul combines old world charm with
modern day bustle. Once the capital of three different
empires, Istanbul is now home to the fabulous art and
architecture of past and straddling the continents of
present. Situated on the Bosphorus Strait, the Golden Horn,
and the Sea of Marmara, its many bazaars, churches, mosques,
museums, and palaces will give even the seasoned traveler a
mesmerizing experience.
Founded
in prehistoric times, the Greek capital city Athens has now
become a thriving metropolis. Despite the urban setting, the
city is full of visible history. The remarkable Acropolis,
ancient Agora, and Hadrian’s Gate all stand as reminders of
Athens’ long past. But for those who prefer the present,
Athens offers shopping in the Plaka, dining in countless
fine restaurants and late-night partying at the discos.
The
modern metropolis of Cairo pulses with activity, yet the
past is so close by. The great Pyramids of Giza and Memphis
are all within easy reach. Inside the city the
world-renowned Egyptian Museum allows a glimpse of the rich
heritage of this land. Whether exploring the ancient or
living the present, Cairo will leave you with an impression
of excitement & awe.
Cairo is
Egypt’s capital city, and with over 16 million inhabitants, it
ranks as one of the largest cities in Africa. This city of
contradictions will enthrall you with its ageless charm. The
ancient and the modern co-exist in surprising harmony, and the
hospitality and friendliness of its people will set you at ease.
Historic Cairo includes the wonders of the pharoahs, as well as a
religious heritage embodied in the numerous jewish, coptic and
islamic monuments that abound.
