The Cube 

Cape Town, South Africa

​

The Cube (Cape Town United Backgammon Establishment), is Cape Town, South Africa's gorgeous addition to what is already one of the world's most beautiful cities.

​

The facets of the building are cut into the skyline, like a fine diamond.

Kuba Dadu Mchezaji

Nairobi, Kenya  

​

Africa's Green City in the Sun, cooled by the waters of the Nairobi River, is home to the "Dome of the Dice Player (Kuba Dadu Mchezaji)"

​

No one can control the weather or the dice in Nairobi.  The retractable dome and offerings to the Backgammon Gods will help.

​

When the Gods are kind ... turn the mchemraba (cube).

Qasr al-nour (Palace of Light) Cairo, Egypt

​

Egypt's most passionate backgammon players live in a small peninsula near Old Cairo, a community surrounding the Backgammon Palace of Light.

​

The Palace is an ornate structure towering into the skies over Egypt, refracting colorful light through the enormous stained glass.  A Mosque, museum, library, and many local merchants are found in the center, as well as "Gammon Hall".

​

Best mode of transportation to the palace is by camel, where at the base the animals are watered and stabled during your visit.
