CultureVisit: ~60 min
Historic café and restaurant in central Cairo, open since 1908 near Talaat Harb Square. It was a meeting place for writers, artists and politicians; it is associated with the meetings of opposition figures and nationalists of the 20th century and with the literary generation of Naguib Mahfouz. It keeps the feel of a classic salon with photographs and mementos on the walls.
