Nilometer displaying Islamic art and architecture
This is a very old structure near the Nile called a Nilometer that was used to measure river Nile's water level. What you see is the top of the shaft, and below it is deep well-like cavity. This is on Roda Island, which is an island in between the Nile itself, in Cairo.
