▲ The Alexandria Bibliotheca, a landmark of Alexandria, is hailed as the "treasure trove of Egyptian culture." The new library officially opened in 2002, standing on the original site of the Ptolemaic-era library and overlooking the Mediterranean's Heracleion Bay. The main structure is cylindrical with a semi-circular dome, while the conference hall is pyramid-shaped. Its exterior resembles a setting sun, symbolizing the cultural light that illuminates the world.
▲ The museum displays a large number of artifacts unearthed from the Alexandria region, including ancient pottery, exquisite jewelry, and historically significant stone tablets. Each exhibit records the glory and changes of Egypt's past, allowing visitors to gain an in-depth understanding of Alexandria's Roman-era history.
▲ The castle was built on the site of the ancient Lighthouse of Alexandria, with its white walls beautifully contrasting against the azure sea, creating a picturesque scene. From the top-level observation deck, visitors can enjoy a 270° panoramic view of the Mediterranean and see the ruins of the ancient lighthouse. The castle also preserves historical relics from the Ottoman period, including cannons.
