Dress code


Here it's important to "balance" - meaning that it's good to know some basic information, but don't think you are going to another planet either. In part of the big cities you will find Egyptians in the latest fashion from Europe or North America, while other places you will find dress customs most will define as "biblical". In modern city areas, hotels and more "tourist" places - go as you please. If you go to different areas in same city or the countryside, the tradition will be more conservative. It is appreciated if you think about this while visiting these areas. For men, don't go without t-shirt in such areas, and for women - have a dress with around knee length and an upper part that cover your shoulders. Apart from going inside a mosque, there is no place a woman is expected to wear headscarf. To go inside a mosque, both sexes will have to remove their footwear. Note that in churches it's also appreciated if women wear head scarf - and for men and women, no shorts in Churches and Mosques.
Again, please remember - you are not coming to another planet, but Egypt with her millenniums of history and culture. Use your logic with above in mind, and you as visitor and Egyptians as your hosts - will enjoy your stay!
