There is an opera house called Said Darweesh, it is really nice if you are craving for a foreign show or sometimes some local shows, I have been to the Chinese Dance show, quite good, there is a bar called Cap d'or it should be good as well

It's really amazing that all of these cultures combined in one place, Egyptian, Roman, Greek, Italian, French and British… Only in one Land ALEXANDRIA..

What's more amazing the harmony of the three religions lived together Judaism, Christianity and Islam….

Hi,
Palace PArk , its nice place ..
Where he was staying here, King Farouk, while in Alexandria in the summer
The palace garden, everyone can visit and sit and play in. They are broad and very, very overlooking the sea
I mean, not a garden in the sense of the word .. But as I saw a small town inside of Alexandria, by the sea, bridges, parks, chalets, and ways of moving the car .. Mini city, just as in the photos Stroa

in  Alexandria you have many places for visiting , if you want see the gardens with the beach and the historical buildings you must go to " AL Montazah Gardens " and when you feel hungry you can eat  in " AL SALAMLEK " resturant
Or if you want to have fun in modern place you will go to "San Stefano Mall" and you will get many things you can do it ,
Or u can go to " bahary " , " Green Plaza " , " Stanly"
