    Fun fact: The Cairo Metro is the first metro system built in both Africa and the Arab world. It is also in the top 10 most used metro systems in the world!

    Imagine taking a metro to the great pyramid. That itself would be an ultimate irony of the ages

    That's pretty terrible, for its density and size

    I'm obsessed with these videos. This is probably the nerdiest thing about me but I love seeing plans for extending metro lines and that they will ease congestiion.

    I hope Africa can get more metros in the future. Abidjan is progressing with its metro, and Lagos has had one under construction since 2009, but delayed constantly. Meanwhile Kinshasa, another megacity, is ravaged by wars, so sadly no metro for them😢

    You forgot to add the LRT. First phase is 71 km, 103 km in total. Extends from Adly Mansour station(Metro Line 3), linking all cities in the east of Cairo, and ends at the New Capital.

    Woah, Cairo's rapid transit system is planned to more than triple in size. That's pretty impressive.

    I used to live in Cairo. It would have been amazing having metro access to get to school in Nasr city. Always used to take the metro on Road 9 to get to Zamalek. Good times.

    With the Cairo Monorail already well underway, it is set to become the world's longest monorail system at 101.5km. This will surpass the current holder of the title, the Chongqing Metro at 98km.

    Nice to see Cairo in this. Cairo is a gorgeous city and it relies on its own metro system and roads. Very good video.

    Please do Medellín, Colombia. It was the first city in the world to implement metro-cables and it has the best transportation city of the country. The city has changed a lot in the last decades :)

    Didn't even know Cairo had metro. Great video.

    Excellent video! But did not include the LRT line from Adly Mansour (connection w/ line 3) to the new capital opera (connection with the eastern monorail), which is under construction and planned to open by early 2022, is it because it’s a Light Rapid Transit line and not really a metro?

    Istanbul!!! It has a lot of lines and not only metro but also streetcar and commute train. It would be epic, watching how everything started and what the future plans for the city’s public transportation will look like.
