About this asset

The Behlar Corridor (Mammar Behlar) connects Talaat Harb Street and Qasr El Nil Street in Wust El-Balad (Downtown Cairo). The corridor runs through Behlar Building, constructed between 1927 and 1929 by Swiss businessman Charles Behlar (1868–1937), who aimed to model the district after Haussmann-era Paris. The building's arched colonnades, warm sandstone facades, and upper-floor balconies are visible in this blue-hour photograph, representing a well-preserved example of Art Deco Khedival Cairo architecture. The corridor originally housed upscale boutiques and cafés and remains an active commercial and residential landmark in central Cairo.
