Visit a Culturally Rich Destination Like President Obama

President Barack Obama will be heading to Cairo next month, and it has been claimed that Egyptian officials hope he'll choose the 1,000-year-old Al-Azhar mosque to address the Muslim community. The American Embassy in Cairo claims that no decision has been made on a venue for June 4th. While we're waiting to see exactly where President Obama will end up, why not plan our own stops at luxury hotels in culturally rich locations?
