Ramadan 2016: Where You Should Go for Iftar and Sohour in Cairo

Ramadan is a time for spiritual reflection, family bonding, and gathering with friends, but the same old routine can get boring really quick during the holy month. Luckily, Cairo is home of the most festive Ramadan’s in the world, from colorful lanterns to over the top entertainment, exquisite food to friendly banter with fellow Ramadaners. This year, the city that never sleeps, especially during Ramadan has brought us a rainbow of Ramadan tents filled with activities, delicious food, and memories to be cherished for years to come.

Here are 15 Ramadan tents to visit with your squad for Sohour and Iftar this holy month.

Cairo’s movers and shakers are here for Sohour this evening – the soft summer breeze, Om Kulthum playing in the background and the Middle East’s favorite dishes all make a colorful and special night by the Nile. Ramadan Kareem to you all!
