5 Things You Must Know Before Going to the Cave Church, the most shocking church is hidden in the dirtiest place

Cairo, the capital of Egypt, is a city full of churches and mosques, with many great historical buildings. Standing high, the towering minarets, crosses, and dome-style buildings are densely arranged, enriching the skyline. During my days in Cairo, I visited many buildings. If you ask me the most impressive one, it must be this cave church that can only be reached through the largest garbage city in the world, where I felt a strong contrast. 1. Experience of the Cave Church 📍Going to the Cave Church through the garbage city is a unique experience. The journey in the garbage city is about 1.4km. The people living here are no different from other places in Cairo, so don't worry too much. 2. Transportation Guide 🚖Taking a taxi can locate St. Simon "The Tanner" Monastery or The Cave Church, which can let the driver go to the door of the cave church. I took a taxi in and walked out. Basically, there are no cars on the return journey. The internal transportation in the garbage city is mainly tutu, which charges sky-high prices for tourists. It is recommended to walk out after the tour. If you don't want to walk, you can let the driver wait in place. "The entrance of the church seems ordinary, but it's like another world inside" 3. History of the Church ⛪️The history of the Cave Church can be traced back to 2500 BC. It is completely free and open. The church area is completely different from the outside world. There is no noisy one dollar, no fly-like vendors, as if it has come to "Cairo's exotic". Walking down the slope under the small door into the main church, this church carved in the cave is very shocking, I sat here for a long time; In addition to the largest main church, there is a hidden small cave church on the side that is easily overlooked and has a more mysterious atmosphere. 4. Must-try Experience There is a small amusement park next to the Cave Church, with two little monkeys🐒. The recommended zipline rope experience is fun and cheap, 150 pounds/person, sliding down gently from a high place, you can overlook the panoramic view of the Cave Church. It's really not exciting at all, very stable, there is no feeling of accelerated heartbeat, the photos are also very good, you can take photos with your mobile phone in your hand, it's just that the waiting area looks scary, and there is a small surprise after the end I won't reveal it😄 5.
