Dakahlia

Dakahlia (Arabic: محافظة الدقهلية, romanized: Muḥāfaẓat al-Daqahliyyah, Egyptian Arabic pronunciation: [ed.dæʔæhˈlejjæ]) is an Egyptian governorate lying northeast of Cairo. Its area is approximately 3,500 square kilometres (1,400 mi2). Although the capital of the governorate is Mansoura, it got its name from the ancient town of Daqahlah (دقهلة; from Coptic ⲧⲕⲉϩⲗⲓ 'shrine'), located in the modern Damietta Governorate.
