Description: A 20th Century-Fox production. Available only to schools. "On a sight-seeing tour of Cairo, we view beautiful mosques and minarets, modern rail, road trains and in the old city, we see women, some wearing veils, buying in the market place. A native dictates to a scribe; a vendor sells sweetened water; camels and carts crowd the market area. In the terrace of Shepheard's Hotel, winter tourists drink coffee; and Bedouin and European races are placed at the fountain, for it take a trolley ride to see a sunset over the pyramids. In a native cafe we see natives smoking a long handled 'hubble-bubble' and close-ups of the guests." Advisory committee
