Mar Girgis Street, Cairo, Egypt

Professional Review for St. George's Church and Monastery

This Greek Orthodox church is built on top of a tower that was part of the Roman fortress, which explains the church's round shape. It was built in 1909 on the foundations of a 10th-century church. The church (but not the neighboring monastery) is open to the public. Daily 9 am-5 pm. Free. Mar Girgis Street (Old Cairo), Cairo.
