Cairo, satellite image. North is at top. Cairo is the capital city of Egypt and, as of 2005, the largest city in Africa with a population of 15 million. It lies on the banks of the River Nile (centre), just south of the point where the river fans out into a delta. The narrow strip surrounding the Nile contains most of the population and agriculture in Egypt, with its waters being used to irrigate the desert soil to produce crops

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking cityscape of Cairo, Egypt, as seen from a satellite's perspective. With its northern region at the top, Cairo emerges as a bustling metropolis and the capital city of Egypt. As of 2005, it proudly holds the title of Africa's largest city with an impressive population of 15 million people. Nestled along the banks of the majestic River Nile, which gracefully meanders through its center, Cairo is strategically located just south of where this iconic river fans out into a sprawling delta. The narrow strip surrounding the Nile serves as both a lifeline and an agricultural haven for Egypt. Here lies most of the country's population and fertile farmlands that thrive due to efficient irrigation systems utilizing these precious waters. The image highlights how agriculture plays a crucial role in sustaining life within this desert landscape. The contrast between lush green patches amidst vast stretches of arid land is truly awe-inspiring. This harmonious blend between urban development and agricultural productivity exemplifies Cairo's unique geographical significance. As we marvel at this remarkable Earth observation captured from space by Science Photo Library, let us appreciate not only Cairo's grandeur but also acknowledge its vital contribution to North Africa's economy and Middle Eastern culture.
