“ | The muezzin began to call the adhan. The sound was beautiful but eerie against the warm night. | ” |
Cairo is a location in 80 Days. It is situated in northern Africa and is the capital of Egypt. The city adopted the 'Parisian model' of modernisation, resulting in a cultural hodge-podge.
For whatever reason, the markets of Cairo are closed on Tuesdays.
Events[]
Passepartout may meet Sophos again following their earlier European encounters and hand him the Venetian glass he obtained from the Sophos Company warehouse in Antalya. Although he won't reward Passepartout with another two thousand pounds, he will reward the valet with a Mechanical Lily worth a considerable sum in another part of the world, provided they arrive there. You can also get the Mechanical Lily just by telling Sophos about the Venetian Glass and keep it for another purpose...
If he has already stopped in Alexandria before, Passepartout will reunite with Helena Kapodistrias, the scientist he met experimenting with a projector that can see into the past.
If Passepartout has met Henri de Blowitz on the Orient Express he can meet the reporter again while browsing the souk. De Blowitz tells Passepartout has discovered that the Ottomans are building a massive automaton and asks Passepartout to keep an eye out for it during his travels.
