Qasr El Nil Street information


Lamppost.
Historic circa early 1900s Beaux-arts lanterns and lamppost on Qasr el Nil Street.

Qasr El Nil Street, (Arabic: شارع قصر النيل lit. Palace of the Nile street) is a street in downtown Cairo, Egypt, one of the biggest streets in Cairo, with many businesses, restaurants, and an active nightlife.

The vintage urban planning and architecture here are reminiscent of the illustrious period of late 19th and early 20th century European Beaux-Arts and Egyptian—Islamic—Moorish Revival styles.[1] The street and its new building designs were part of creating a new international downtown district, to link to Egypt's rich Islamic heritage and institutions with the many new foreign enterprises, at the turn of the 20th century in Cairo.
