行走开罗

Walking in Cairo

"未见过开罗的人等于未见过世界,她的土地是黄金,她的尼罗河是奇迹,她的妇女就像天堂里黑色眼睛的圣女,她的房子就是宫殿,她的空气柔软得像芦荟木般香甜好闻令人喜悦。开罗怎能不是这样呢,因为她是世界的母亲。"——《一千零一夜》

'He who has not seen Cairo has not seen the world.Its dust is gold;its Nile is a wonder;its women are like the black-eyed virgins of paradise:and how could it not be otherwise,when she is the Mother of the World'.——'The Thousand and One Nights'
