Cairo: The Suk-es-Selah (1912) - A Vibrant Scene of Trade and Life in the Heart of Egypt's Capital City This photograph, taken in 1912, offers a glimpse into the bustling and lively atmosphere of Suk-es-Selah, a renowned marketplace in the heart of Cairo, Egypt. The Suk-es-Selah, also known as the Old Cairo Market or the Khan el-Khalili Bazaar, has been a significant commercial hub for centuries, attracting traders and travelers from all corners of the world. In this image, donkeys laden with goods make their way through the narrow, winding streets, their owners skillfully guiding them amidst the throngs of people and merchandise. The shops, with their colorful displays and intricate designs, line the streets, selling everything from textiles and spices to jewelry and antiques. The air is filled with the aroma of freshly baked bread, roasting coffee beans, and the scent of various spices. Livestock, including goats and sheep, are led through the market, adding to the cacophony of sounds and sights. Amidst the hustle and bustle, a man rides atop a donkey, seemingly unfazed by the chaos below. The Suk-es-Selah was, and still is, a place where the sights, sounds, and smells come together to create an unforgettable sensory experience. This photograph, with its rich history and vibrant energy, transports us back in time to a moment in Cairo's past, offering a glimpse into the city's rich cultural heritage and the bustling trade that has defined it for centuries.
