The Cairo Tower

Tower Cairo, Cairo, Egypt

What to expect

The Cairo Tower is a free-standing concrete tower located in the Gezira district on Gezira Island in the River Nile, close to downtown Cairo. It stands at 187 meters tall and was the tallest structure in Egypt for 37 years. The tower's design is inspired by Ancient Egyptian Architecture and features a partially open lattice-work design intended to evoke a pharaonic lotus plant. Visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the city from the tower's 360-degree circular platform and revolving restaurant. The tower is a great place to visit with family and friends, offering stunning views of the city and its landmarks, including the pyramids, the Nile River, and Tahrir Square
