Nillens-Egypt

Egypt is famous for its cotton, which has earned the reputation of the being the best cotton in the world because of its softness, strength and other superior characteristics.  Make sure you have enough space in your luggage to take a set of linen home!

Visit Nillens in Zamalek, a shop that has become well-known for its locally made Egyptian cotton products.  The shop is located on the ground floor of the Degla Center on Hassan Sabry Street.

Leather products are also a very good buy in Egypt.  If you are interested in buying quality leather products you will be well advised to consult a guide or the concierge at your hotel on the best shops around.

The perfume oils in Egypt are also an extremely good buy, however do not buy these from tourist shops as you will end up paying much more than at the local markets.
