Al-Hussein Mosque, Cairo

This is the mosque and shrine of Imam Hussein in the heart of the Bazaar (traditional tourist market) district of Cairo: Khan El-Khalili. This is a wonderful part of Cairo, and it is always happening, 24/7. I lived in the vicinity for 25 years, and I would love to go back.
