Egypt’s Museums I: The Museum of Islamic Art

Egypt's Museums I: The Museum of Islamic Art

Egypt is home to dozens of museums, from downtown’s hugely popular Egyptian Museum to the strange and too-often overlooked Agricultural Museum. Each Wednesday, as part of a new series focusing on the diverse world of Egyptian treasures new and old, Al-Masry Al-Youm will take a close look at one of these museums.

This week, we examine the Museum of Islamic Art, whose renovation process is perhaps as interesting at its artifacts.
