Geocache Description:

Located in the heart of old historic Cairo and commanding stunning panoramic views of the world's most intriguing city, Al-Azhar Park offers every visitor a glimpse into the captivating past. Lush green landscaped gardens are an enjoyable sojourn away from city's major tourist attractions. Embracing valuable history, the park is home to the newly discovered Ayyubid wall, constructed by Salah El Din more than 800 years ago.


OPEN DAILY from 10:00 to 22:00 // Entrance fee = 10 L.E.

What you will find here? A really beautiful park with an excellent view over Cairo - nice for kids, couples and elders as well. Visiting the park is a great experience, and a chance to escape from the noise and crowd of Cairo - the perfect place to be included into GeoCaching maps. Read more on (Wikipedia).

The GPS signal is not the best, so I will leave some guidance note to assist you on retrieving the Cache safely. Spoiler picture available, to ensure that the cache will last long. The difficulty of this Cache stay in the fact that the area is extremely crowded, it is a challenge to sign the log unseen by a thousands of Muggler's eyes.

Passing the Main Gate, head towards your left - look for the first bench on the aft pathway. Sit on the Bench - on its left side (close to the gate).

Please ensure that you are leaving the Cache the same way you find it (push it there, to ensure that it remain locked), invisible to the Mugglers!

Congratulations scubie999 for FTF
