Is there a dress code for visiting religious sites?

Yes, modest dress is required when visiting religious sites such as mosques and churches in Egypt. Both men and women should wear clothing that covers shoulders, arms, and knees. Women may be asked to cover their hair with a scarf, which is often provided at the entrance. Avoid shorts, sleeveless tops, and revealing outfits to show respect for local customs. Dressing appropriately ensures a warm welcome and a respectful experience at sacred places
