开罗也是阿拉伯联盟总部所在地。市内既有清 真寺、萨拉丁城堡、阿布丁宫等古代伊斯兰建筑 艺术瑰宝，又有鳞次栉比的现代化高楼大厦。遍 布全城的清真寺宣礼塔使开罗享有“千塔之城” 的美称。 开罗因地处欧亚非三洲的交通枢纽，漫步街头， 可见各种肤色的人。本地人，宽袍大袖、俨然古 风。在某些街区，偶尔还可见到骑着毛驴放牧的 村姑，未免新奇。这也许是旧开罗的缩影或古开 罗的残迹，但无伤大雅，历史的车轮，仍带着这 座名城，向着更现代化的道路前进。

其他著名的还有玛雅金字塔、阿兹特克金字 塔（太阳金字塔、月亮金字塔）等。 相传，古埃及第三王朝之前，无论王公大臣 还是老百姓死后，都被葬入一种用泥砖建成的长 方形的坟墓，古代埃及人叫它“马斯塔巴”。后 来，有个聪明的年轻人叫伊姆荷太普，在给埃及 法老左塞王设计坟墓时，发明了一种新的建筑方 法，最终建成一个六级的梯形金字塔 --这就是我 们现在所看到的金字塔的雏形。这本身就是一大 奇迹。所以可以说金字塔是古代埃及人民智慧的 结晶，是古代埃及文明的象征。
