Shobra
Shubra (or Shobra, Shoubra) is an administrative region and forms a relatively small area that represents about one quarter of the district with the same name in Cairo, Egypt. It neighbours the areas of Elsahel to the north, Sharabeya to the east, Road El Farag to the west, and Shobra tunnel and Cairo central railway station to the south, the latter of which separate Shobra from the Downtown Cairo area.
