Bani Suwayf is one of the governorates of Egypt. It is in the centre of the country. Its capital goes by the same name. The city of Bani Suwayf is about 120 Km south of Cairo on the West bank of the River Nile. The area is well known in Egypt for its Cement Factories. The nearby Meidum Pyramid is the only real tourist attraction in the area. Due to different ways of transcripting the Arabic Spelling it can also be known as Beni Suef, or Beni Swaif. It is one of the poorest governorates in Egypt, it is inconvienienced by being so close to Cairo. Businesses etc. do not feel the need to invest in the area and it is felt keenly by local people.
