After a long chilly winter season, spring is officially here; where the sun is shining, the days are getting longer and Cairo is blooming with life.

With so many things to do in Cairo during spring season, Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at Nile Plaza has rounded up a list of top things to do around the city and inside the Hotel.

Through May 3, 2019, experience Mother Nature at her best as one of Cairo’s oldest botanical gardens and the most significant one, Orman Garden, hosts its annual Spring Flowers Festival.

The 28-acre garden was built to be part of the private area of Khedive Ismail Pasha’s Palace in 1875 to provide the royal palace with different kinds of fruits and vegetables from all over the world.

With more than 600 different types of plants, including some of the rarest in the world and the two most famous plants of ancient Egypt, papyrus and lotus, this will be a one-of-a-kind experience for all nature enthusiasts.

With the fine weather taking over, it is the best time to get the much-needed breath of fresh air while exploring Cairo on foot. There is no better place to begin with than the charming island of Zamalek; a neighbourhood made up of slender streets and leafy paths, with a close-up view of the ever-enchanting Nile and some of the city's landmarks. It is the home to the fashion-conscious with trendy cafés, restaurants, boutiques and clubs, only a 10-minute walk from Four Seasons.

A day spent outdoors on the pool at Four Seasons Cairo at Nile Plaza is the ideal escape to soak up the sun and spring warmth. On April 29, 2019, the Pool Grill team celebrates Easter and Sham El Nessim with joyful activities for the whole family to enjoy together.

From a delightful lunch menu with live violin and guitar tunes, to the kids’ corner, face painting, egg colouring, bunny petting and more, it will be entertaining day for parents and kids alike.

On April 28 and 29, 2019, Zitouni restaurant will treat the whole family to an exclusive Easter brunch buffet with creations to connect guests with the roots of Egypt while watching restaurant chefs do their magic in the open kitchen.
