Points for Attention Cairo

It is comparably safe in Cairo, police can be seen everywhere. In the places where tourists gather, more fully-equipped policemen are there, which also reflects some hidden danger while giving the tourists sense of safety. In daytime, every part of Cairo is filled with crowds of people, so there are few problems in security, but people, esp. girls are not supposed to go out alone or go to remote places where few people go after 10 o’clock in the evening. Stealing is seriously prohibited by the Islamic religious laws, so there are few thieves but that doesn’t mean there is none. You should still be careful of your property when going out, never letting down your guard. The sanitary conditions in Egypt is not very good but thanks to the dry weather, epidemic diseases are not common, even though things are not clean, it is not that easy to get gastroenteritis or similar diseases. Pharmacies are everywhere in Egypt. The pharmacy stocks medicines and also items for daily life, such as shampoo.
