The Saladin Citadel of Cairo is a medieval Islamic fortification in Cairo, Egypt. The location, on Mokattam hill near the center of Cairo, was once famous for its fresh breeze and grand views of the city.

There's a lot to see in Cairo, and this is probably one of the best viewing areas. It amazing the history that's right under your feet here.
You feel like a king walking there, the view from the top is wonderful and the museum items and war tanks and equipment just fascinate me. A must go to check Egypt 's history.
Visit Saladin Castle , Mohamed Ali Mosque , Police Museum & the wonderful Military musem, then enjoy a panoramic view for Cairo & Fustat from above the castle .
Nice place, read about the history of the place and you would totally enjoy it. Gives a good idea of old Egypt . Unfortunately, like many others places in Cairo the place is poorly maintained.
The weather in this beautiful Scenic Lookout is totally different from the rest of Cairo, enjoy the history and the modern events that happen there as well
Do not miss .. The highest mosque in Cairo.. Great historical place .. Museum inside for Egyptian army
Sometimes some events are held there, went about 4,5 times and were well organized , highly recommend tbh
Don't miss the Egyptian national military museum and the Muhammad Ali mosque ..
So Cool and great place to go plus its nearby to other awesome places but take care from sun beams there is no way there to hide
Great view of Cairo and Giza from up here! Full of historical sites that are well preserved

Nothing so special but the mosque .. I thought I'm gonna see a place that tells the story of Salah ElDeen the legend but it was only mosque !!!
Now I am with Heba & Marsa Two oldies so nice but it's two crowded for a concert
Amazing compound - mix of military and Islamic history. Beautiful views of downtown Cairo.

Mısr el-kadîm / eski kahire yapılarının ve o azametli medeniyetin seyrine Saladin camii kompleksinden bakmaya doyum olmaz. Camii , Kavalalı Mehmet Ali Paşa'nın Kahire'ye bir hediyesi.
La ciudadela del Cairo es una de las principales atracciones turísticas de la ciudad. Está en una colina rocosa, y es un imponente monumento medieval, que puedes ver desde muchos puntos de la ciudad
