Despite the fact that Cairo is solidly linked to the past, Cairo is also home to a radiant modern society. The vicinity of Tahrir Square in down-town Cairo area, built in the 19th century under the leadership of Khedive Ismail, has strived to be a "Paris on the Nile". There additionally are a number of even more contemporary suburbs including Al-Maadi and Heliopolis, while Zamalek is a calm area on Gezira Island, with exceptional shopping. Cairo is best in the fall or spring, when the weather isn't so hot although almost everywhere you go has airconditioning facilities. A felucca (sail boat ) ride on the Nile is a fantastic approach to get away from the fast paced city and de-stress your soul. Yet another nice spot is Al-Azhar area close to the Khan. Zamalek is a well off region of western Cairo covering the northern portion of Gezira Island in the Nile River. The island is connected with the river banks through three bridges each on the east as well as west sides of the island, which includes the Kasr El Nil bridge and 6th October Bridge. It has witnessed several phases of growth affected by numerous economic and political currents which has brought to a crowding of parts of the island which includes great reductions in the Zamalek district's open green areas, but with a large greenbelt throughout the island's middle characterizing the two districts. The quiet, green streets and 19th-century residence blocks and the leftover remaining villas help to make this one of the most beautiful sections of the city and a popular residential spot for many of Cairo's European expatriates. It is furthermore the region of many fine dining places, bars and cafes, including traditional open-air promonads and western as well as local coffee bars. The Gezira Island area is socially active with art galleries and museums, as well as the Museum of Islamic Ceramics. If you really want to go browsing in Zamalek, I advise Nomad Gallery stores. Nomad has been a landmark of Cairo store shopping for quite a few years with a goal to create a constantly transforming variety of silver jewelery, Bedouin clothing and accessories that combine tradition with fashionable style. Nomad collection is for the most part produced by in-house craftsmen and designers so they can guarantee dependable quality and fair pricing. East rich heritage of craftsmanship and design forms the base of Nomad's distinct collection of jewelery. This exclusive fusion of old and new, east and west add the spice that helps make Nomad's range of Egypt shawls, Bedouin carpets and rugs, and silver jewelry so attractive.[http://nomadgallery.net click here to browse jewelry]
