At dawn on a Friday morning, you will be transferred to camel market in Cairo, the Souk al-Gamaal, held hundreds of camels that had been driven across the shifting sands from Libya, Sudan, Somalia and Aswan only for them to end up hauling tourists at the pyramids or swinging by the hooves in a slaughterhouse.
It's Egypt's largest camel market, 35km northwest of Cairo, on the edge of the Western Desert, makes for a wild contrast to Cairo city life.
It's considered the biggest of its kind in Egypt, and people from every social standard and also traders went there to get a relatively cheap and guaranteed healthy meat. Also foreign tourists from all over the world come to this famous market, because they are keen after watching the Pharaonic monuments to see the largest gathering of camels.
