Lonely Planet review for Shar Hashamaim Synagogue

Shar Hashamaim Synagogue is one of the few remaining testaments to Cairo's once-thriving Jewish community. Resembling a set from Tomb Raider, its ornate Babylonian exterior was being restored at the time of research; when it's done, the place may once again be open on Saturdays, the Jewish holy day.
