- Fort Qaitbey - Sultan Abu Al-Nasr Sayf ad-Din Al-Ashraf Qaitbay (Arabic: السلطان أبو النصر سيف الدين الأشرف قايتباي) (c. 1416/1418 – 7 August 1496) was the eighteenth Burji Mamluk Sultan of Egypt from 872-901 A.H. (1468-1496 C.E.). (Other transliterations of his name include Qaytbay and Kait Bey.) He was Circassian by birth and was purchased by the ninth sultan Barsbay (1422 to 1438 C.E.) before being freed by the eleventh Sultan Jaqmaq (1438 to 1453 C.E.). During his reign, he stabilized the Mamluk state and economy, consolidated the northern boundaries of the Sultanate with the Ottoman Empire, engaged in trade with other contemporaneous polities, and emerged as a great patron of art and architecture. Although Qaitbay fought sixteen military campaigns, he is best remembered for the spectacular building projects he sponsored, leaving his mark as an architectural patron on Mecca, Medina, Jerusalem, Damascus, Aleppo, Alexandria, and every quarter of Cairo.
- Ancient Roman Amphitheater - The Roman Amphitheatre is one of Alexandria’s most renowned monuments. This is Egypt’s second most important city, after the capital, Cairo. While amphitheaters were spread through different countries like Greece, Italy, and Turkey during the Roman era, with many examples of these structures still present in various regions around Europe and the Middle East, the Roman Amphitheatre of Alexandria is the only one of its kind in Egypt.
