Cities of the Dead

Cairo has two extrememly old and very, very large cemetaries on it's eastern side.

It is said that over 3,000,000 people are buried there and some 200,000 live (squat!) there in the debris and crap; these cemetaries are known informally as The Cities of the Dead.

We spent half a day wandering about flithy and interesting streets.


Andi, in front of some herdrs animals - goats, sheep and a few chickens.


Not all dead things are buried here. I was gonna poke this dead dog with a stick but SPOILSPORT Andi said NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Two interesting shots showing some of the totally amazing structures that are here...just waiting to be squatted!
