Alexandria Library - The Great Library of Alexandria in Egypt was one of the largest and most important libraries of the ancient world. It was part of a larger research institution known as the Mouseion, dedicated to the Muses, the nine goddesses of the arts. The concept of a universal library in Alexandria may have been suggested by Demetrius of Phalerum, an exiled Athenian statesman, to Ptolemy I Soter, who possibly initiated plans for the Library. However, the Library itself was likely constructed during the reign of his son, Ptolemy II Philadelphus. The Library rapidly amassed a vast collection of papyrus scrolls, thanks to the Ptolemaic kings’ proactive and well-funded efforts to acquire texts. The exact number of scrolls it housed is unknown, but estimates range from 40,000 to 400,000 at its peak.
Kayetbai - The Citadel of Qaitbay, also known as the Fort of Qaitbay, is a 15th-century defensive fortress located on the Mediterranean Sea coast in Alexandria, Egypt. Constructed between 1477 and 1479 AD (882–884 AH) by Sultan Al-Ashraf Sayf al-Din Qa’it Bay, the Citadel is positioned on the eastern side of the northern tip of Pharos Island at the entrance of the Eastern Harbour.
Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa - The catacombs, named Kom El Shoqafa, meaning Mound of Shards, were so called because the area once contained a mound of terra cotta shards, primarily consisting of jars and clay objects. Visitors to the tombs would bring food and wine for their visit, but would break the containers rather than take them home from this place of death. At the time of discovery, piles of these broken plates were found.
Ancient Roman Theater, Alexandria - Roman theatres evolved from earlier Greek theatres, with much of their architectural influence coming from the Greeks. However, Roman theatres have distinct differences, such as being built on their own foundations rather than on earthen works or hillsides, and being fully enclosed on all sides.
Mosque of Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi - The Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi Mosque is an Egyptian mosque located in Alexandria. This historic mosque is named after the 13th-century mystic Abu’l Abbas al-Mursi, who is also interred there along with members of the Ashraf family.
