Kumuntu, iCairo ihlotshaniswa ngqo namaphiramidi, ama-Mums nakho konke okuphawula impucuko yaseGibhithe lasendulo. Lo muzi ufanele ukunakwa, kepha eminyakeni yamuva futhi sekuyi 'insimu "yokuxabana okungokwempi. Lapho efika lapha ngohlaka lohambo lokuvakasha olusuka eSharm-El-Sheikh, ngakwazi ukubona i-wagum echo. Isakhiwo se-Cairo amaningi salahlekelwa ukuheha kwabo kwangaphambili. Bami njengokungathi bangangeni, ngaphandle kwezibuko. Ukucindezela, kunjalo, isithombe.
Manje kukhona ezolile nengcupheni, kanye nabanye abavakashi, kunqume ukwenza uhambo ngendiza encane. Ngakho-ke shesha kakhulu kunasebhasini labavakashi eligibela ogwini cishe amahora angama-8.
Kusukela eminyakeni yesikole, empeleni ngangifuna ukubona esinye sezimangaliso zomhlaba, ukuvakashela umnyuziyamu odumile. Ekugcineni ukwazile ukuhlanganisa.
Cairo, njengamadolobha amaningi omhlaba wesithathu, yakhelwe ngokuqhathanisa. Lapha komakhelwane kukhona izakhiwo zesimanje nalezo abathi "ngaphandle kwezinyembezi ngeke zibone." Kubukeka sengathi kuyikota yanamuhla yasemanzini, abantu abagqoke kahle, kodwa kancane kancane i-lech endala, udoti, abantu abampofu. Ngisho nangokwethu esithombeni esinjalo. Akukacaci ukuthi ukuphi edolobheni lanamuhla noma idolobhana elidala, lapho konke sekuncipha khona futhi abantu baphila kabi kakhulu.
Yebo, asikhulumi ngakho. Izivakashi ziheha izivakashi ezidumile emhlabeni wonke. Vele, phakathi kwawo amaPyramids Giza adumile.
Okukhulu kunakho konke, okuvela kule nsangu etholakala lapha yimibhoshongo, iphiramidi yama-hero. Kuhambisana ne-sphinx enkulu kanye noLwandle Olubomvu ikhadi lebhizinisi laseGibhithe. Ukwakhiwa okuhlukile. Empeleni kuhlale kungashintshiwe ngosayizi, kubhekwe kancane kancane phezulu kwephiramidi ngenxa yokuzamazama komhlaba. Ngesikhathi esakhiwe ngaso, kuyamangalisa. Ukuba nemishini yesimanjemanje nezinsimbi zomsebenzi, abaseGibhithe bakwazile ukwakha iphiramidi kusuka emabhulokini angaphezu kwezigidi ezimbili, ngasinye esinesisindo okungenani amathani angama-2,5. Kuze kube manje, ososayensi balahlekile ngokuqagela ukuthi kwakhiwa kanjani konke. Abanye bavame ukucabanga ngeqiniso lokuthi izidalwa ezingabafokazi zasiza ekwakheni. Izinguqulo, ama-hypotheses, izinganekwane ezihambisana nePyramid Giza bekulokhu kuningi. Ngakho-ke manje ucwaningo lwesayensi alupheli. Izazi eziningi zaseGibhinile zisafuna amaphiramidi athi "Sore". Kwangenzeka ukukhamba kube yiphiramidi ngomgodi omncane kakhulu, kepha angikwenzanga. Isifiso sami sashaya iphunga elibi eliqhamukayo ukusuka endaweni ethile kusuka ngaphakathi. Bese kuba nokuhlolwa kwe-sphinx enkulu. Ngingathanda ukubona iqiniso lokuthi ezithombeni ezincwadini zemihlahlandlela, ividiyo yezithombe kuthelevishini zonke lezi zakhiwo zibukeka ngandlela thile lezi zinqwaba, isikhumbuzo.
Ukuvakasha kwesibili kwakuwumnyuziyamu waseGibhithe. Uyaziwa emhlabeni wonke ngemibukiso yawo engavamile.
Lapha, emaphethelweni angaphezu kwekhulu, ukuqoqwa kwezidalwa zasendulo kuyavezwa, kufaka phakathi ama-sarcophage, izifanekiso, imikhiqizo eyigugu evela emathuneni, amathuluzi avela ethusi, apendwe yimikhiqizo ye-ceramic, kanye nama-mummies. Imibukiso ingaphezu kwe-1500, kepha inombolo yazo ikhula njalo ngenxa yokuthola okusha. IGibhithe lasendulo laliyimpucuko eyingqayizivele ngempela, kwathuthukiswa kakhulu ngaleso sikhathi, hhayi ukuhlonipha namuhla. Ezinganeni, ukuvakashela iMnyuziyamu kuzofuna kakhulu, ngoba lapha kungenzeka ukubona konke esikufunde kuyo yonke into njengengxenye yomlando wezwe lakudala. Izindleko zethikithi lokungena emnyuziyamu wama-dollar ayi-7. Isikhathi esiningi senziwa lapha. Ukudalulwa okuthakazelisa kakhulu, ngifuna ukubona konke ngokoqobo.
Kungenzeka ukwenza umfula wamanzi ezungeze iCairo. Kusukela emphemeni wesikebhe esincane sezivakashi, kwavela izakhiwo zasemadolobheni, zadlula endabeni ye-El Tahira edumile, lapho kuqoqwe imibala eminingi ngesitayela samakhosi asendulo eGibhithe.
Ukuhamba uzungeze idolobha kwavumela i-cairo ngokwengeziwe. Izingxenye ziyimigwaqo emincane, noma ngisho nama-boulevards abanzi, izifanekiso zikaFaro, uLviv, konke lokhu kuseCairo. Angikwazi ukusho ngokungathandeki ukuthanda lo muzi noma cha. Angizange ngibe nomuzwa wokududuza ngokwengqondo, ukuba lapha. Njalo bekusekuqaleni. Angazi, mhlawumbe ngombono wami. Imibono yahlala ilungile. Kuliqiniso, ekuvakasheni okukodwa eCairo ukubona okuningi kwehluleka, kodwa ngavakashela izindawo zohlelo lokusebenza. Angikwazi ukusho ukuthi ngifuna ukubuya lapha. Nganele kanye.
