(As we know Heliopolis is a very large place and a drive around it can take hours so we suggest transportation by plane, but careful don't bump into "airforce one" as it flies the skies of Heliopolis too.) We cannot describe Heliopolis as empty or crowded or anything of the sort because it contains all descriptions. Heliopolis is like a small city it even has ring roads and bridges connecting different parts of it to each-other, it contains quiet areas as well as noisy crowded ones it has commercial strips as well as strictly residential areas all containing a very massive number of vehicles.

During the day cars seem to flood Heliopolis from all directions, from the Suez road, Ismaileya road, 6 October bridge, Autostrad, Salah Salem and even from the Airport, sarcastically some would say that they never leave! If you are a first time visitor to Heliopolis and you are driving we assure you that you are lost! The road network around Heliopolis is a mess as a consequent of the unplanned growth of the town. Heliopolis grows in different directions and at different times and under different plans and it is expected to link together but unfortunately that link is lost. As another result of the unplanned growth the town has no specific character, Heliopolis became extremely multicultural. Differences in architecture, styles and colors of buildings can't be neglected and have become a style for this place.
