Cairo's Islamic monuments are part of an uninterrupted tradition
that spans over a thousand years of building activity. No other
Islamic city can equal Cairo's spectacular heritage, nor trace its
historical and architectural development with such clarity. The
discovery of this historic core, first visually by
nineteenth-century western artists then intellectually by
twentieth-century Islamic art specialists, now awaits the delight
of the general visitor. This new, fully revised edition of a
popular and handy guide continues to walk the visitor around two
hundred of the city's most interesting Islamic monuments. It also
keeps pace with recent restoration initiatives and newly opened
monuments.
