Egypt's famed bazaar welcomes return of Chinese tourists
CAIRO, Jan. 7 (Xinhua) -- Shop owners in Khan el-Khalili, one of the most famed tourist bazaars in the Egyptian capital Cairo, are expecting the return of Chinese guests after China announced its easing of travel restrictions starting from Jan. 8.
Located in the heart of Cairo's old Islamic district, the centuries-old market used to bustle with tourists coming from all over the world.
However, the COVID-19 pandemic that broke out three years ago has depleted the market of its vibrant vibe.
