El-Shorouk (Arabic: الشروق pronounced [eʃʃʊˈɾuːʔ, eʃʃɪˈɾuːʔ], "the Sunrise") is a satellite city in the Eastern Area of Cairo, Egypt, also spelt Elshorouk. El Shorouk is considered as an extension for Heliopolis (Masr El Gedida). The two areas are mostly residential and are characterized by a limited number of malls and projects that would otherwise cause street congestion, unlike Nasr City and New Cairo which attracts investments and has lots of malls causing streets congestion. As a "new city" it is administered by the New Urban Communities Authority (NUCA). Shorouk is one of the so-called third-generation new cities, established by presidential decree 325/1995, allocating 11,000 acres (4,500 ha) of public land to NUCA, in addition to further allocations totalling 53,000 acres (21,000 ha) by 2017.
