Sharm El Sheikh has turned into a ghost town following bombings and political turmoil and it is definitely sad to see.

This odd sight in the middle of Egypt is situated at the bottom of a mountain range and is literally an outdoor movie theatre.

Although it may seem like the pyramids are in the middle of an empty desert area...

That's how a protest in Egypt looked one year ago...

These are colorful pictures of Egypt that date back to 1920. At those times the country was under the patronage of the United Kingdom, as British troops occupied Egypt in 1882. You can see that not much has changed in Egypt since then…

Here’s how protesters protect themselves from stray and direct hits of rocks.

These “helmets” can’t be called very efficient and safe…

These are Egyptian protest plans that have been circulating among the Egyptian protesters. They provide all of the necessary instructions on how to protest correctly including their demands.

Thanks to our visitor GOODSTUFF4U who sent us this interesting link about these protest plans.

The protests in Egypt are becoming more violent. An increasing number of anti government protesters are calling for President Hosni Mubarak to resign. So far 150 people have died and over 3,000 arrests have been made.

Manshiet Nasser is a strange community in Cairo, Egypt. People call this place The City of Garbage because tons of trash come here from all over the capital of Egypt. The most unusual thing about this place is that people actually live here. Another strange thing about Manshiet Nasser is that local residents, the Zabbaleen, including women and kids dig through the garbage looking for something to resell. About 80 per cent of this trash is recycled and resold later on.

Cairo is not the only city on earth where such a model of Manshiet Nasser exists. It is already copied by communities in Los Angeles, Bombay and Manila.
