Citadel Clock, Caïro, 20090922

I was in Paris over the weekend and in the middle of Place de la Concorde is a Obelisks which was gifted to France by Ottoman ruled Egypt in 1836.

 

In return, the French gave Egypt a clock in 1856, which you can see here, and was being renovated during my visit to the Caïro Citadel in 2009.
