Hi, I'm Naomi and I'm very excited to show you The World’s Greatest Attractions. Cairo, Egypt one of the greatest cities in the world is home to many extraordinary landmarks. Founded in remembrance of Tusun Pasha, Mohamed Ali Mosque embodies Ottoman architecture to its core. Limestone construction, alabaster tiles, high domes in geniusly built facades, interesting angles and exquisite marble are some of the features that make this monument simply enchanting. The courtyard features a club tower along with ablution fountains carved in Turkish Baroque Style.

The semicircular arches are poised on columns made out of marble and feature beautiful motifs and sculpturing. The statuesque towers, domes, and minarets of this mosque makes it a jewel of the Cairo skyline, visible from almost anywhere in the city. Thank you for watching our travel video series. See you next time.
