Alexandria ::::::

When the name of Alexandria is mentioned, I feel my eyes lighting up, it is as if Alexander the Great has come back to life again. This great young leader came to Egypt to fight against the Persians, who had invaded Egypt a few years before.
In 333 BC Alexander entered Memphis, the ancient capital of Egypt, where he was welcomed and hailed as a King by the Egyptians. He was a quite clever diplomat, as he showed great respect and veneration to the gods of ancient Egypt,

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.


Alexandria is a city to explore at random. It's as important to enjoy the atmosphere as it is to see the sights.
Recommended sites to see in Alexandria:
Kom El Shouqafa (Called the Catacombs)
Pompeii's pillar
Citadel of Qaitbay
Roman amphitheater
The National Museum of Alexandria
The library of Alexandria

Luxor all the time !!!!

The ancient city of Thebes, the great capital of Egypt during the New Kingdom, and the glorious city of the God Amon Ra. The city was regarded in the Ancient Egyptian texts as T-APT (meaning “the shrine”) and then, in a later period, the Greeks called it tea pie, which the Arabs later pronounced as Thebes. The importance of the city started as early as the 11th Dynasty by King Mento-hotep
The city of Thebes was the capital of the fourth Nome of Upper Egypt. The main local god was the God Amon Ra, who was worshipped with his wife, the Goddess Mutt, and their son, the God Khonsou, the God of the moon. Thebes was also known as “the city of the 100 gates”, sometimes being called the southern city, to distinguish it from Memphis, the early capital of the Old Kingdom.
Thebes also played a great role in expelling the invading forces of the Hykos from Upper Egypt. From the time of the 18th Dynasty, through to the 20th Dynasty, the importance of the city had risen as the major political, religious and military capital of Ancient Egypt. Such importance faded during the Late Period, but the God Amon Ra remained the main God until the Greco-Roman period.
