night clubs in Egypt are noted for their lively music, drinks and perfect ambience that are highly essential to make an evening colorful and enjoyable.
Night clubs in Egypt are believed to have existed for quite some time. The modern costume used in belly dancing was invented by a bar owner of Cairo in the early 1900’s.
Most of the night clubs of Egypt have bright and flashing nights, loud music, wine and drinks and belly dancers. Belly dancing is the most popular form of dancing in the nightclubs in Egypt apart from pole dancing. The Egyptian style of belly dancing has originated from the work of belly dance legends like Samia Gamal, Naima Akef and others. The dancers wear mermaid-style costumes and do not expose much as Egypt is a Muslim country. For a certain period of time, belly dancing by foreign dancers was banned in Egypt.
Most of the Egyptian cities like Bahrain, Cairo, Alexandria, Sharm el-Sheikh and others have several nightclubs. Some of the well-known nightclubs in Egypt include:
