Alexandria The Second largest and famous city in Egypt, founded by Alexander the Great in 331 BC,. known as "The Pearl of the Mediterranean".
is a huge center of the international shipping industry and one of the
most important trading centers in the world.Alexandria was also the center of learning in the ancient world. But
ancient Alexandria declined, and when Napoleon landed, he found a
sparsely populated fishing village.
Alexandria is a city to explore at random. It's as important to enjoy the atmosphere as it is to see the sights.
Dinocrates built the Heptastadion, the causeway between Pharos and the mainland. This divided the harbors into the Western and Eastern. The Eastern harbor was really where the old harbor from the Middle Ages was located.

The Fortress of Qaytbay
The citadel consists of external and internal walls and the main tower.
The external walls surround the citadel from all four directions. They
have defensive towers that rise as high as the level of the walls,
with the exception of the eastern wall. They also have defensive arrow
slits. A considerable distance separates the outer walls from the
internal ones where the barracks and the store houses for arms and
weapons are found.
