Past preserving the mausoleum\u2019s architectural and historic significance, the restoration mission has additionally contributed to revitalising the encompassing neighbourhood by attracting a rising variety of guests.

Traditionally, the location served as a burial floor for rulers and dignitaries throughout the Mamluk interval earlier than later changing into a cemetery for distinguished Egyptian households.<\/p>\n

The restoration of the Sultan Qaitbey Mausoleum is certainly one of a number of cultural heritage initiatives supported by the US in Egypt. Two further initiatives funded by means of the Ambassador\u2019s Fund are anticipated to start quickly within the Al-Gamalia district of Historic Cairo and on the Medinet Habu Temple in Luxor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
