Map of Egypt showing Bani Suwayf Governorate.

Bani Suwayf (Arabic: بني سويف ) 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 Nile River. 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 transcribing the Arabic spelling it can also be known as Beni Suef, or Beni Swaif. It is one of the poorest governorates in Egypt and it is inconvenienced by being so close to Cairo. Businesses do not feel the need to invest in the area and it is felt keenly by local people.
