 Cairo: The Family Guide provides all families living in Cairo--expatriate and Egyptian alike--with the resources and information needed to explore the city to the fullest. Organized by geographic area, each section begins with an overview of the area's history and residents. Then the authors take us on a detailed journey to the special treasures of each Cairo neighborhood, with photographs, line drawings, maps that pinpoint sites of interest, and plans of museums and other places of importance in the area. Each section also includes practical advice on how to get to each location, what to take on visits, opening hours, and much more. And, as many people know, an enjoyable afternoon means something entirely different to a six-year-old than to a thirteen-year-old: to this end, suggestions are age-sensitive, and a variety of activities are proposed. Also included are a detailed historical timeline and a recommended reading list. Author Lesley Lababidi draws on a wealth of knowledge accumulated through her own experience as well as that of her collaborating author, an Egyptologist, and the other contributors, a Khan al-Khalili connoisseur, a bookseller and editor, and a geologist.
