Maadi Road 9
Road 9 is Maadi's answer to Oxford Street...bustling, full of shops selling just about everything, its the commercial hub of the suburb called Maadi....

Gamal, I had googled "Maadi" and came across an article on what Maadi used to look like in the 1950-60s...the article had this and some other pictures...
