One of my favorite areas to walk around. There is lots to see in Coptic Cairo including the Hanging Church. This could be an easy day-time activity, as it is nearby and very easy to get to by Metro.

Very close to the house! (3 min walk) and although the decor isn't so great, you can get moderately priced beers (25 L.E) and a great view of the Nile and the city.
