Workation in Cairo: the essentials
More than 22 million people live in Greater Cairo, and you notice every one of them in the traffic. The reward for putting up with noise and dust is a city that has been a centre of power since it was founded in 969: the minarets and madrasas of Islamic Cairo, a UNESCO site, the Khan el-Khalili bazaar and the churches of Coptic Cairo. Most foreigners settle on the Nile island of Zamalek, in leafy Maadi or in the eastern suburbs, each of which can feel like its own town. Coworking spaces exist and the metro avoids the worst jams. Cairo International Airport is about 21 km from the centre.
