Henry Posted February 16, 2012 Report Posted February 16, 2012 The Saladin Castle, is among the preferred traveller attractions in Cairo, Egypt. Cairo is the capital city of Egypt and, the thirteenth biggest town internationally. About 16,000,000 people live in Cairo and like it not only for its prospering contemporary society but also for its historic importance. The Castle is a part of the Muqattam Hill near the centre of the town. It was once known for its breezes and gorgeous views, as long ago as Ayyubid ruler Salah al-Din, who built it and then fortified it against attack. The computed construction date is between 1176 and 1183. You can notice the Cairo Castle is also known as the Mohamed Ali Castle because within, it holds the particular Mosque of Muhammad Ali Pasha, built in the 19th century. The mosque was assembled in honour and in memory of Muhammad Ali
