Der Stadtteil Madinat Nasr, auch Nasr City oder Nasser City , gehört zu jüngeren Stadtteilgründungen von Kairo. Er befindet sich südlich von Heliopolis und östlich von al-Wayli und al-Gamalīya. Die Straßen (Salah Salem St, Uruba St, El-Sayid el-Merghany St.), die Heliopolis von Madinat Nasr trennen, führen direkt zum Flughafen von Kairo.

Madīnat Naṣr wurde im äußersten Osten der Stadt seit den 1960-er Jahren angelegt. Die Namensgebung stammt vom damaligen ägyptischen Präsidenten Gamal Abd en-Nāṣir (1918–1970), der sich auch selbst in die Stadtplanung mit eingebracht hat. Heute ist Madīnat Naṣr die Wohnstadt der meisten Einwohner Kairos und besitzt eine Fläche von 250 Quadratkilometern. Die Hochhaussiedlung mit ihren vorwiegend Eigentumswohnungen hat kaum Sehenswertes zu bieten. Nichtsdestotrotz ist es der wohl florierendste Stadtteil mit einer relativ jungen Bevölkerung, zahlreichen Supermärkten, Kinos und einem großen Stadion. Das Leben und die Kultur sind stark an die der Golf-Staaten angelehnt, auch, weil viele der hier Lebenden als Gastarbeiter in diesen Staaten ihr Geld verdient haben. Der Stadtteil beherbergt mehrere Regierungsgebäude und das Cairo International Conference Center.
