qaytbay castle
visit from outside please note that : The Qaitbay Citadel in Alexandria is considered one of the most important defensive strongholds in Egypt and along the Mediterranean coast. In the 15th century A.D., it was essential to Alexandria's fortifications.
The Citadel resides at the entrance of the eastern harbor on the east point of Pharos Island. It was erected on the site of the famous Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The lighthouse continued to function until the time of the Arab conquest. Several disasters occurred, and the shape of the lighthouse was changed to some extent, but it continued to work. Restoration began during Ahmed Ibn Tulun (about 880 A.D). During the 11th century, an earthquake damaged the octagonal part. The bottom survived but could only serve as a watchtower, so a small Mosque was built on the top. In the 14th century, a destructive earthquake destroyed the building.

Alexandria Bibliotheca
The Library of Alexandria was one of the ancient world's most famous and influential libraries. It was located in Alexandria, Egypt, and was built in the third century BC by the great ruler Ptolemy I Soter. The library was designed to house a vast collection of books and manuscripts, including works on philosophy, mathematics, science, and literature. It quickly became a center of learning and culture in the ancient world, and its influence extended far beyond Alexandria.
The Library of Alexandria was renowned for its immense collection of books and manuscripts. It was said to have contained up to 500,000 scrolls and was one of the largest collections of knowledge in the ancient world.
