In the morning, at the beginning of the day, your guide will take you in a private air-conditioned car, and you will begin your tour to the most famous Coptic sites in Cairo, such as:
The story goes that the Virgin Mary appeared in the hanging church, in a vision of Anba Abraham who had spent three days praying and fasting, when the caliph, Imam El Mo'ezz El Din Al Allah asked him to move the mountain of Moqattam, to prove the words of the gospel: "If you had faith, even the size of a mustard seed, you should say to the mountain: move from there to that side, and the mountain would have to move". According to the story, there was a great earthquake and the mountain moved. After witnessing the miracle, the caliph allowed Patriarch Abraham to restore the churches of El Moallaqa (the hanging church) and Abu Sefein.
In the first place, The Ben Ezra Synagogue is the oldest synagogue in Egypt. It was supposedly built on the site where Moses called upon God to put an end to the hail and pestilence. The synagogue is especially famous for the Geniza (meaning storehouse) documents stored there since 1041, rediscovered after 1864 and since 1896 located primarily in the Cambridge University Library. These documents - court depositions, deeds, titles, commercial contracts, petitions, letters, inventories, religious questions and judgments - represent the most complete documentation of any society unearthed. As transcribed by S. D. Goitien in A Mediterranean Society, they describe al-Fustat as a vibrant capitalist society engaged in trade throughout the Mediterranean. Immigrants from North Africa and Palestine were attracted by the religious tolerance of the Fatimid regime and the affluence of El Fustat.
After that, it is time to have lunch in one of Cairo’s famous restaurants and enjoy the taste of Egyptian food, then we continue our tour.
