Read time for Cairo from the Africa/Cairo zone (EEST, UTC+03:00); the city carries roughly 9.6M residents and ranks #1 among curated Mısır entries.
Geographically, Cairo is at 30.06°N, 31.25°E — that places it in the Northern Hemisphere's subtropics, about 3337 km from the equator, with warmer-half daylight that stretches noticeably in summer.
Today the sun rises around 06:14 AM and sets around 07:30 PM in Cairo — about 13h 16m of daylight. Mısır observes daylight saving time on this zone, so the offset shifts seasonally.
Būlāq Abū al ‘Ilā (2 km from Cairo) gives this page its nearest commuter and travel cluster, with 3 curated airport pages indexed for Mısır.
On 2026-05-01, Labour Day is the next holiday flag for Cairo — worth blocking out for launches or logistics.

Cairo is the capital and largest city of Egypt and the Cairo Governorate. It is home to more than 9.8 million people. It is also part of the largest urban agglomeration in Africa, the Arab world, and the Middle East. The Greater Cairo metropolitan area is one of the largest in the world by population with over 22 million people. Areas of what would become Cairo were inhabited from pre-dynastic and early-dynastic ancient Egypt c. 6000 years ago, as the Giza pyramid complex and the ancient cities of Memphis and Heliopolis are today within the city.
From Cairo the nearest of our reference hubs are Dubai (~2,422 km), London (~3,511 km), Singapore (~8,259 km), while Sydney sits about 14,416 km away — useful framing when someone needs a feel for whether a meeting is a regional hop or an intercontinental call.
