Get a panoramic view of Cairo from atop the Cairo tower. Standing tall at 187 meters, this tower was inaugurated in 1961 during the rule of the late President Gamal Abdel Nasser. It is a landmark in Egypt now and exhibits intricate structural art using styles from classical antiquity.
The tower looks like a lotus plant that is illuminated in varied hues of colors in the evening, giving it a charming appeal. On top there are telescopes to enjoy the breathtaking view of the iconic pyramids of Giza and Sakkara as well as the entire city.
This tower is ideally located as well on Gezira Island, on the banks of the river Nile
