This top ten list of Cairo’s hidden gems contains a selection of places that aren’t so well known, but still deserve to be part of every itinerary in Cairo. The top ten gems of Cairo include bizarre museums, lesser visited – but still accessible – monuments, and venues the locals check out for live music.
