Review & FAQ:

Bab El Nasr sits at the northeast corner of Fatimid Cairo. It consists of two square towers and an arched gateway that is set back. There is a covered roadway between the two towers. The structure in its entirety measures 24.22 meters in width and 20.89 meters in height, with a depth of 20.47 meters. People can visit this amazing piece of Egyptian architecture to view the beautiful columns, interesting stone pieces, and the shields, half of which are circular while the other half are round on top and pointed on the bottom.
