Between 1998 to 2012, the Aga Khan Trust for Culture restored eight major monuments in Al Darb al-Ahmar, including a 1.2 kilometre stretch of Cairo’s historic Ayyubid Wall, with the aim to turn the district into a major destination for visitors. With the on-going rehabilitation of the 14th century Maridani Mosque a ninth monument will now be added. The route that AKTC has developed for visiting these historic sites not only covers the monuments, but also the myriad crafts of the district, as well as Darb al Ahmar’s living culture. This film offers a walkthrough of Al Darb al-Ahmar, Cairo, and the restored monuments. Source: Archnet
