A bird's eye view of the Al-Azhar Park built by the Aga Khan Cultural Trust. On the right is a cemetery and on the left is the historic but impoverished neighborhood of Darb Al-Ahmar. The park was built on a former trash dump to offer city dwellers a pleasant break from the concrete jungle of Cairo. (Photo: Courtesy of the A.K.T.C.)
