Alexandria Governorate Essentials

Alexandria Governorate showcases Egypt's Mediterranean heritage, centered around the historic port city founded by Alexander the Great. This collection includes the modern Bibliotheca Alexandrina, the 15th-century Citadel of Qaitbay built on the site of the ancient Pharos Lighthouse, and the Roman-era Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa. Visitors can explore the Roman Theatre's marble tiers, view the Muhammad Ali Dynasty’s treasures at the Royal Jewelry Museum, and walk the scenic Corniche. Further afield lies Abu Mena, a UNESCO-listed early Christian pilgrimage site.
