Khan el-Khalili is Cairo’s centuries-old bazaar of narrow alleys, ornate metalwork, colorful textiles and teahouse scenes—perfect for intimate street and architectural shots. Visit early morning for quieter alley compositions, or after sunset for warm lamp light and neon reflections. Expect crowds, grab-and-go access (no entry fee), wear modest clothing, and watch gear in busy areas; limited parking nearby—use a taxi or walk from Al-Azhar/Al-Hussein Metro.
