Islamic Art Museum, Cairo; Artifacts from the Islamic World

Islamic Art Museum, Cairo, Egypt - the place that displays different objects and artifacts from all over the Islamic world, which immediately grab the eye.
The Museum of Islamic Art that is found in central Cairo, Egypt, is considered one of the greatest places in the world and this goes back to the different hidden gems that are found inside the place. The rare collection found inside the museum include woodwork and plaster artifacts as well as ceramic, metal, glass, crystal, and textile objects from different periods and places from the Islamic world.
With the rare objects and artifacts that are found inside the Islamic Art Museum, it is important to mention that there are more than 100,000 objects inside there; some of them are displayed while the rest are kept in the storage rooms. There are different objects to be seen inside the halls, since there are about 25 halls, and thus this big place needs some time to manage seeing it all and coming across the different artifacts that are found inside.
The Islamic world is so huge and there are a lot of things that the world know nothing about and have never seen before. Inside the Islamic Art Museum, there are rare things to see, such as the collection of the rare manuscripts of the Qur'an, with some calligraphy written with silver ink on pages with elaborate borders.
There are two entrances for this museum, one is found on the north eastern side and the other is found on the south eastern side. This beautiful place faced some damages which were caused by a bomb attack in the same area and which needed some restorations since some of the artifacts were destroyed and that is the reason why it was closed and reopened its gates at the beginning of this year.
This is a highly recommended place for people to visit because it carries good information, is clean from the inside, and carries different things related to the Islamic world which are related to different eras and different countries around the world.
Both Egyptians and foreigners will enjoy their time in this museum because the artifacts and objects are displayed in a very presentable way and the written descriptions attached come in both languages; English and Arabic and it also written in the conversational manner and not that textbook kind of way, so both groups of people will spend a couple of hours inside the place but will come out with good information and satisfying experience.
It is considered one of the rare places to visit and which are also related to the Islamic history and world which you will never find anywhere else; a place that represents all this kind of treasure and let you even think about it for some time after leaving the place, and sometimes even after leaving the country and going back home.
To understand the meaning of the Islamic art in the world, the Islamic Art Museum is the place where you could spend a couple of hours viewing different Islamic related objects that you have never even thought they existed.
The building itself takes the Islamic look, so you will feel the atmosphere before even getting the chance to enter the place and view the different objects that are found inside there. The tour inside the place will get you introduced to the Islamic contributions and discoveries which the world is still benefiting from until this very moment.
The Islamic Art Museum location is in Port Said Street, Bab Al-Khalq square, which is considered the downtown of Cairo and which is close to other attractions that include the Egyptian Museum ( • The Egyptian Museum in... ) which you could go to by walking, Cairo Tower ( • Cairo Tower; It Overlo... ), the Pharaonic Village ( • The Pharaonic Village ... ), and even a little bit close to the Giza Zoo ( • The Giza Zoo, Cairo, E... ).
This place opens its gates everyday from 9 AM to 5 PM, except Friday, it opens from 9 AM till 11 AM but then closes its gates and reopens again from 1 PM till 5 PM, due to the Friday prayers. The entrance fees of the place are not expensive, which is usually the case with different tourist attractions in Egypt, they are 40 Egyptian pounds for Egyptians and a little more for foreigners, about 80 Egyptian pounds. Visitors are allowed to take pictures inside but without using the flash and this is only after they pay extra ticket fees which are 10 Egyptian pounds for Non-Egyptians.
There are different places to visit in Cairo, Egypt in addition to the Museum of Islamic Art, such as visiting the Pyramids of Giza ( • Pyramid of Djoser in S... ), you could come across Mohamed Ali's Palace ( • Mohamed Ali Palace, Ca... ), you could go to the Citadel of Salah Al Din ( • Citadel of Salah Al Di... ), and you could have a walk through the downtown area to get more introduced to the place ( • Downtown Cairo; The Pl... ).
