Waes' Travels

Cairo, Egypt (8x1)

Air date: Apr 03, 2022

In the past two years Tom traveled mainly through Flanders and the Netherlands, but how different it is this season. He investigates what it is like to live in one of the largest cities in Africa and by far the largest city in Egypt, which was an important metropolis already in the time of the ancient Egyptians. That's Cairo still.. Cairo's population continues to grow at a killer pace. This could cause problems in the long run, because in recent years the Egyptian capital - with more than 22 million inhabitants - is in danger of bursting at the seams. A 'new Cairo', 45 kilometers from the current city, is therefore in the making.
