Elevated view of Cairo from the top of the Mosque of Mohammad Ali Pasha. Two walls of the Mosque courtyard can be seen in the foreground, and are lined with high arches, each with a small dome on top. The clock-tower sits in the foreground on the left. The Mosque-Madrassa of Sultan Hassan is visible in the distance, surrounded by buildings of the city of Cairo.
