Drive to the so-called “Garbage City" to visit Saint Simon’s Monastery, known as the Cave Church of Zabbaleen, with your Cairo tour guide. (A large population of garbage collectors live around the Monastery). Lots of Churches were carved in Mokattam.

Visit Saint Simon and the Tanner Hall.

Examine St. Mark’s Church, which was discovered in 1974. It was full of stones even up to the ceiling, which is 17 meters high, and was later prepared to contain two floors:

• The lower one is St. Mark’s Church that named after St. Mark, the first preacher in Egyptian heritage.

• The upper one is the St. Simon the Tanner Hall, with a seating capacity of 2000 people for spiritual meetings. The walls are decorated with many wonderful pictures engraved on the rocks representing scenarios from the Bible.

Proceed to the Cathedral of Virgin Mary and St. Simon, the Tanner. The church was constructed in the form of a quarter circle to accommodate a few thousands of people, and it is the biggest church in the monastery.

Then, move on to Coptic Cairo to visit the Hanging Church, Ben Ezra Synagogue, Babylon Fortress Cairo, and Church of Abu Serga. Return to your hotel.
