Dokki, Administrative district in Giza Governorate, Egypt.
The western bank of the Nile River hosts Dokki, a major residential and commercial area that connects Cairo with Giza through multiple roads.
Dokki evolved from a village on royal agricultural land in the early 20th century, with Princess Fatima's palace marking its central point.
The district's streets bear names of Arab countries, while its six neighborhoods reflect different social and economic characteristics of Egyptian society.
The area contains two metro stations on line 2, Bohooth and Dokki, plus numerous bus routes that facilitate transportation across Greater Cairo.
The district accommodates 56 foreign embassies and 102 educational institutions, making it a center for international relations and learning.
