Saints Sergius and Bacchus Church

The church is more than 1600 years old and is the oldest Coptic Orthodox church in Cairo. The walls of the entire church are made of many boulders, which appear very simple. There is a very important legend under this church. It is an ancient church that Cairo people admire and worship very much. It is worth visiting.

This is a Coptic Orthodox church that is more than 1600 years old. It is one of the oldest churches in Egypt and has a very important position in the whole of Egyptian Christianity. So it is worth a visit and don't miss it.

Abuhiga-St. Segros and Baggs, the long and rounded church, can be simply remembered as the Church of the Virgin and the Son of God. Founded in the 4th century, the church is the oldest Coptic Orthodox church in Cairo. Egyptian Christians believe it is the place where the Virgin Mary and her child Jesus fell in Egypt. It is said that the basement of the church is where St. Joseph, the Virgin and the Holy Infant once hid. Through a narrow staircase for only one person to go down to a basement of less than ten square meters, the left hand semicircle of the alcove has a stone less than half a meter, legend is where the holy site is located. The church area is not very large, for domestic tourists, the point is the basement of the shrine bed, a circle for half an hour is enough, not far from the hanging church is more attractive.

This church is located in the old district of Cairo, the area is small, from the hanging church past. After a small alley full of books, you will see a map of Egypt, where you can clearly see our eight-day tour of Egypt, the Red Sea to the Mediterranean, Aswan to Cairo. There is not much content in the church, and there is not much difference from other churches. The only thing that impressed me was that the glass was covered with a primitive juicer, which was quite interesting.

Built in the fourth century, the church of St. Segros and Baggs the Bacchus, Abuhiga is the oldest Coptic Orthodox church in Cairo, where Egyptian Christians believe the Virgin Mary and her children are hiding under Jesus' shelter. Every June 1st, the Cairo Christian Church holds a grand memorial service to pray.

这教堂是一座当地敬拜酒神巴格斯的地方，古老的建筑物外显得普通。教堂外的耶稣基督十字架像显得很神圣。
