EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene at a landing stage on the Nile River in Cairo, Egypt, circa 1910. The image showcases a collection of traditional dahabieh boats, native to Egypt, moored at the shore. Dahabiehs are characterized by their distinctive two or more sails and were extensively used for passenger transportation during the 19th and early 20th centuries. The tourists of the era, dressed in their finest attire, are seen disembarking from the boats with the assistance of local porters. The dahabiehs were an essential means of transport for tourists, providing a unique and authentic experience as they navigated the iconic Nile waterway. The tranquil yet vibrant atmosphere of the scene is further emphasized by the clear blue waters of the Nile, the lush greenery along the banks, and the backdrop of historic Cairo in the distance. The dahabieh boats, with their elegant sails billowing in the wind, add to the picturesque tableau, offering a glimpse into Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage. This photograph not only serves as a testament to the enduring allure of the Nile and its traditional watercraft but also highlights the role of the dahabiehs in facilitating tourism in Egypt during a bygone era.
