Region
Cairo is the capital of Egypt and is also considered the largest city in the Arab world. The metropolitan area, with a population of over 30 million, is the largest region in Africa, the Arab world, and the Middle East, and the sixth-largest in the world.
While in many countries there is a difference between being polite and friendly, the two in Egypt are one and the same. Being unfriendly is being rude. This is the reason why Egyptians can be so friendly with strangers.
The best time to visit Egypt is between October and April when temperatures are cooler, but they are still nicely warm across the country.
A recent study shows that Egypt's capital Cairo is the cheapest city in the world.
