khan el-khalili

Dating back to 1382, Khan El-Khalili is full of exotic charm and smells! I have now gone twice, and had a ton of fun both times. Each experience was new, and each provided chances for me to practice bartering... and all of my new Arabic vocabulary!

With great finds, and new friends, Khan El-Khalili is breath taking. It is a continuous maze of narrow alleys, leading sometimes up steep, uneven staircases...

Pictures just do not do any justice - any my attempts are lacking by far!! These are just a few to try to give you an idea.

Enjoy.
