Most people know Port Said as the city of the Suez Canal, a gateway for trade and commerce. But beyond the ships and storefronts lies a city shaped by generations of stories, cultures, music, architecture, and memories.⁠⁠Through "Two Grandmas, One Table", a collaboration between Hekayyatna, Teta Loula, and StaBene, participants were invited to experience a different side of Port Said. From historic villas and forgotten cinemas to communal meals and the melodies of the simsimiyya, the journey explored what makes the city far more than a stop along the canal.⁠⁠At a time when many of Port Said’s cultural landmarks face neglect, initiatives like these are helping reintroduce people to the city's rich heritage and reimagine its future as a destination for cultural tourism.⁠⁠To know more about the people and initiatives working to revive Port Said’s cultural identity, tap the link in our bio or visit our website to read the full article. by @egyptianstreets
