The Al-Azhar complex, mosque and university, is located in the heart of Islamic Cairo and is not only home to the oldest university in the world, but is also where the black robes for graduation originated. The costume worn by students around the world at graduation seems to have been inspired by the flowing robes worn by Islamic scholars graduating from Al-Azhar. Today, the university is spread over various buildings, but the mosque, founded by Jawhar al-Siqilly, the Fatimid conqueror of Egypt, in 970, is still a true marvel and an attraction not to be missed when visiting Cairo. Moreover, its location makes it the perfect place to start your exploration of Islamic Cairo. Al-Azhar Mosque
