In Geometry , the Cairo pentagonal tiling is a dual semiregular tiling of the Euclidean plane.

It is given its name because it appears on the streets of Cairo and in many Islamic decorations.

This tiling can be seen as the union of two flattened perpendicular Hexagonal Tiling s. Each Hexagon is divided into four Pentagons .
