Shopping in Egypt - Near Touloun Mosque - Khan Misr Touloun
Souvenirs at the Touloun Mosque
Khan Misr Touloun
The Touloun Mosque has been restored, and an interesting museum, the Gayer Andersen Museum, is located just beside it, within the surounding walls.
On the street opposite the entrance is a charming shop, Khan Misr Touloun.
In fact, the shop was so interesting that I have no photographs of the iems. They may have requested that we not photograph, I can't remember. But, anyway, I recommend this shop if you are visting the Touloun Mosque.
