It is one of the largest markets in Cairo, but it specializes in wood of all kinds and forms.. “Furniture” is its main address, and home furnishings are obligatory. When you roam the streets of the Manasra area, there is not a street devoid of furniture stores or workshops for manufacturing, painting, and glass.
In a new episode of the “Fathy Show” program, presented by Mohamed Fathi Abdel Ghaffar, we shed light on the first furniture district in Cairo that Egyptians do not know much about. From the east, Port Said Street.
The name “Al-Manasrah” is attributed to the Caliph Al-Mansur Billah, the father of Al-Mu’izz Li-Din Allah Al-Fatimi. The strange thing about the area is that when you go to it, you find that its entrance is very small, consisting of a lane 3 meters wide. It is the beginning of one of the largest wood markets in Cairo. Damietta, Cairo, where it is an integrated complex for all the arts of the furniture industry.
It is worth noting that the market offers furniture to all classes of society, and it is noted that the most popular classes in buying furniture from the market are the middle class, followed by the lower class, followed by the upper class, although the market contains all types that everyone requests.
Recently, the area began to gradually reappear after traders reduced prices and provided high quality to attract all classes to buy and the market to revive again.
