Map of Cairo
The map of Cairo as it appears in Mario is Missing!.

Cairo is the capital city of Egypt and the largest city in Africa. Along with New York City, Rio De Janeiro, Tokyo, and London, it is in the last set of cities Luigi has to visit in the game Mario is Missing!.

As with all the other cities in the game, Cairo was invaded by Koopa Troopas sent by Bowser. The Troopas stole artifacts from various landmarks of the city: the Great Pyramid, the Mosque of Mohammed Ali, and the Sphinx. Luigi's task is to find all the artifacts and return them to their respective landmarks.

Also, tie-seller Ali Mustafa, appearing in the Club Nintendo comic "Mario's Picross", is from Cairo.
