I spoke about the Rosetta old houses before when I was wondering about that old house forgotten by the ministry of culture and the supreme council of antiquities despite other houses in the city were restored and inaugurated by Mubarak last year.
This slideshow will show you how beautiful the old houses of Rosetta are and how the Tawakitty house can be so beautiful too if the ministry of culture remembers it.
Some people will consider this an achievement of Farouk Hosni and I tell them , well this is the least thing he can do , already this is his job to look after our national heritage ,the heritage which has been stolen , attacked and destroyed for the past 20 years.
hosni is mediocrity at its finest! with israel giving him the nod, and the US opposing (not really just noise to placate the heavy opposition) he will be voted in as DR!..........what a joke!
ReplyDelete@Pax Machina , :( I can't believe it :(
ReplyDeleteThe work on the buildings is beautiful. Similar to what you see in Khan El Khalili near the Pancake house.
ReplyDeleteGo to the main branch of Banque Misr downtown and if you can get a tour of the manager's interior office. Spectacular!!!! Makes the doors in Raschid look like pauper's atabas.
