It’s called ‘zabbaliin quarter’ -‘garbage collectors quarters’, populated mostly by Christian Egyptians* (Copts), who have been responsible for collecting and recycling Cairo’s garbage for decades, and doing a much better job than many western countries who claim they recycle but end up in landfills. -plastic, paper, tin cans, even fish and animal bones boiled to make glue for shoe-making. A very vibrant neighbourhood that serves a purpose. The people are happy and households are mostly clean. Not a poor neighbourhood. * note the absence of hijabs’ on women .

If You had opportunity to live there You would realize that living in other countries always offer something for somethig and cleanliness and happiness may go separate ways. But to know it reqiures determination and skills to make good connection to people who live there. Living in Cairo was for me exceptionaly demanting regarding working at the same time rewarding for local life conditions and trustworthy to me people. I found all that "mess" much more reasonable than in western countries. Surely driving car and walking requires new set of skills but life is for learning.

Foss, a true reporter of the world like it is , a reportage such as you do not find in CNN or alike, because Foss takes the viewer along with him !

I visited Cairo and a town called Ismailia, Egypt back in 1991, because my mother married an Egyptian man and then they had two kids, and moved to Egypt, so I went to see them, and visit Egypt. It was an awesome trip! First of all, it was before the world changed, so that in itself made it great. I was able to smoke on the plane, which I enjoyed very much. We went to the Pyramids, The Egyptian Museum, to a bazaar, and for a faluka ride on the Nile. We went out to eat a few times, and just walked around downtown Cairo, too. I remember seeing goats and other animals, and I remember there being a lot of street cats. The Call to Prayer freaked me out the first time I heard it, but then I got used to it. I'm glad I went when I did, because I don't think I would be brave enough to travel anywhere in the Middle East right now. Also, I should mention, I never had to go anywhere without a family member that spoke fluent Arabic, so therefore, I never had any communication issues. I remember one day I wore a tank top and shorts, and I'll just say, if you are female, don't do that if you visit Egypt. It was not viewed as appropriate. ** I don't remember Cairo being super filthy, in general. It wasn't "clean", but I don't remember there being garbage everywhere. Could be which part of town you visit, maybe? 🤔 Or it might just be totally different today, just like the rest of the world has changed. I personally hate the way the world is today.

its because you are an idiot and you lack some knowledge. The small streets are part of ancient cities of Kathmandu valley whose town planning was done more than 3000 years ago. It is the only ancient city with ancient cultures that is still existing today. Those streets were never meant to be for driving cars. There are larger streets for chariots routes and small alleys and maze like planning for normal walking and horses. Small doors and alley ways to confuse any invading armies. Some of the best ancient and medieval towns are in Nepal. But maybe you visited those places recently which is after 2015 earthquake. There's constructions going on everywhere to rebuild the congested deep alleys with thousands of people commuting so it might feel disorderly.

Iran? Tehran looks nothing like this. I'm not saying that Iran is perfect, but considering the isolation of the country politically and economically, Tehran is fairly advanced.

Great video thank you for sharing it... Peace

That’s what an Egyptian said when he saw the price of apartments in Vancouver B.C Canada 🇨🇦 he’s already on his way back to Egypt. Beauty and cleanliness cost a lot of money. Only 40 yrs ago Vancouver was cheap, small but beautiful and affordable. It’s now for the long time residents and millionaires only. Most young people are already planning to leave B.C, who will clean the city who will serve the coffee to those rich people ? The crash will come. Cairo was once beautiful.

This has to be one of the most fascinating videos I've seen on KZread. Thank you! Subscribed.

Thank you for such an interesting tour of Cairo slums!!

Interesting sharing, thank you.

Went there a year ago as part of a 17-day tour of Egypt. As our guide explained, it's NOT GARBAGE they are collecting, sorting, and then selling, it is dry recyclable items of all sort, no food or anything that might attract rats. Entire families work in this business, the men collecting items and then selling sorted and bagged items, while women and yes children manually sort the stuff.

@lo2740

Ай бұрын

nice story, but its not what we call recycling, its garbage hustlers. REcycling is at totally another scale, hundreds of tonnes, not hundreds of KG, all these peopels do is sort through garbages to extract the more valuable and sell them. Air quality in CAiro is insanely bad, and most of the garbages (in mass) are burned, directly inside the city.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 they don’t sort 💩. If they did, you wouldn’t see trash literally EVERYWHERE, mixed with dead animals on the side of the road, all the way to Giza. Wake up

Facinating video. I will probably never get the chance to do this myself but this is almost as good

It’s a trip how none of the cars or trucks have any dents 😂. It’s nice that everyone says hello I thought they knew you 😂 I’m really liking this video. It was funny when you started to gag and said “the smell” 😂 I guess that was a trash truck that passed by.

Good morning 🙏🙏😁 Thank you so much for sharing your channel 👍🥰

Thanks for visiting

The people are so friendly to each other when everyone is out and about. I grew up in the country and to me without the poverty i see i love the buildings and streets and the way everything is. How everthing just blends together with earthly colours and building's. Would love to see factory's for everyone to work and earn wages they deserve and everything thriving Thanks for the walk was great.

What a chaotic city! I see there's no sidewalk for pedestrians and you're risking your life among all that traffic!! Thank you for showing us this face of Cayro. I loved the people, almost everybody said hello to you...😊

What today is left of the cities of ancient civilisations are temples, arches, palaces and villas of marble, but surely those cities had their slums as well as for instance can be seen in Pompei, Italy. The presence of those slums does not make those ancient civilisations less respectable, nor does make slums in cities of today the civilisation of the countries, in which those cities with slums can be be found, less respectable.

Thank you.Could easily get lost round.There looks a big maze. 😮

Everyone seems generally very friendly and the kids are all sweet natured.

I appreciate being born in England. This is unbelievable in 2024

Years ago, I was part of the UN peace-keeping mission (UNEF II) based in Ismailia, Egypt. We used to drive often along the outskirts of 'Garbage City', during our 'embassy runs' to Cairo. We knew it then as a poor, Christian district. And even today (thanks to your video) you almost immediately note the lack of head coverage on the women, indicating that the population is still largely Christian. If the 'western' world only knew...
