Egypt gives model example of coexistence of religions, said Pope Tawadros II of Alexandria and Patriarch of Saint Mark Diocese.
Delivering a speech in a celebration of opening the Hanging Church in Old Cairo after its renovation, the Pope said that this church is considered one of the oldest churches in the world.
He further said that Egypt attaches great importance to its antiquities despite the difficult economic conditions in the country.
The church was dubbed the "Hanging Church" because of its location on a gatehouse of the Babylon Fortress, a Roman fortress built in Coptic Cairo.
