ab0si Posted February 3, 2009 #2 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Define catacombs. There is a large underground Roman burial site (about 2100 years old) called Kom ash-Shuqqafa that is marketed as the Cairo Catacombs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisemom42 Posted February 3, 2009 #3 Share Posted February 3, 2009 As Paul says, there are catacombs in Cairo but they are not well known. Most people visit the ones in Alexandria (where cruise ships generally dock) -- are those the ones you've heard about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruecatt Posted February 4, 2009 Author #4 Share Posted February 4, 2009 The one's I was told about are suppose to be in Cairo. I heard about the ones in Alexandria but these are suppose to be some where near the pyramids in cairo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
