Alexandria
Founded
by Alexander the Great in 331 BC, Alexandria became the capital of Graeco-Roman
Egypt, its status as a beacon of culture symbolized by Pharos, the legendary
lighthouse that was one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The setting for
the stormy relationship between Cleopatra and Mark Antony, Alexandria was
also the center of learning in the ancient world. But ancient Alexandria
declined, and when Napoleon landed, he found a sparsely populated fishing
village.
Now the largest port in Egypt and the greatest summer resort in the Middle
East. It is located on the Mediterranean Sea north west of Delta, 225 Km2
from Cairo by agricultural road and 221 km2 by
desert road. Named after
Alexander the Macedonian who ordered its foundation in 332 B.C., on
the site of a small village called Rhakotis to be the capital of his reign
in Egypt, a port near to his country and a Greek cultural centre.
Since its foundation Alexandria remained for many centuries a centre of
cultural radiation to the whole world. It occupied a remarkable place in
the history of mankind.
Today Alexandria is considered the second capital of Egypt. It is distinguished
by its strategic location,moderate climate and its beautifully fine sandy
beaches which cover a large area between Agamy in the west and Abu Qeir
in the east which made it worthy of its well merited title "Pearl of
the Mediterranean".
Alexandria was, and still is, a prominent cultural beacon for knowledge
seekers and the history of its famous library- whose revival is underway-
tells the story of the dawn of culture, enlightenment and creation.
Various religious sites are widespread in Alexandria of which are:The Jewish
synagogue in Al-Nabi Daniel street, St Marc church established in the first
century A.D. by Saint Marcus,Saint Catherine Church and Abu Mina Monastery
which lies 50 km from Alexandria.
From the 19th century Alexandria took a new role, as a focus for Egypt's
commercial and maritime expansion. This Alexandria has been immortalized
by writers such as E-M- Forster and Cavafy. Generations of immigrants from
Greece, Italy and the Levant settled here and made the city synonymous with
commerce, cosmopolitanism and bohemian culture.
Dinocrates built the Heptastadion, the causeway between Pharos and the mainland.
This divided the harbors into the Western and Eastern. The Eastern harbour
was really where the old harbour from the Middle Ages was located.
Of modern Alexandria, the oldest section is along the causeway which links
what was once Pharos island with the mainland and includes the districts
of Gumrok (the oldest dating to about the 16th century and known as the
customs district) Anfushi, and Ras el-Tin (Cape of Figs). The latter two
districts date to about the period of Mohammed Ali (1805-49). Collectively,
these districts are known to westerners as the Turkish Quarter. They have
had a number of ups and downs over the years, particularly due to the plague
during the 17th century. The area forms somewhat of a T-shape, dividing
the Eastern Harbor from the Western Harbour.
