Despite its name, this isn’t just a cemetery — it’s a vast neighbourhood where thousands of people live alongside mausoleums and tombs. The 'City of the Dead' refers to the large burial grounds, but it’s very much alive, with families building rooms next to graves that have become permanent homes. Markets, mosques, and everyday streets thread through the area, offering a side of Cairo you won’t find anywhere else.

Just 23 kilometres west of Vimmerby lies Katthult, known for being the setting of the beloved Emil films. Wander through cherry trees, lilac bushes, and iconic structures like the main house, barn, storeroom, servant's house, and more, all mirroring Astrid Lindgren's stories. Explore the woodshed, meet farm animals, and step into Katthultsboden, a shop offering souvenirs, ice cream, and drinks. The farm, except for the inhabited main house, is open for exploration, revealing a workshop, Alfred the Servant's house, the outhouse, and a spacious cellar.
