Discover the Sultan Qaitbay Fort, which was constructed over the ruins of the phare of Alexandria. The phare of Alexandria was one of the seven wonders of the ancient world built by Ptolemy the second. It was over 100 metres high, comprised of three sections in three different shapes—circular, octagonal, and square—and housed hundreds of men and their families. Day and night, a row of donkeys was loaded with wood to feed the fire that could be seen from 100 kilometres away, and ships were spotted 24 hours in advance of their arrival. Enjoy the Fort's location on the outskirts of the city, which is surrounded by the sea on almost all sides. The sultan built the monuments to fend off the threat of the ottomans, and he also put up a sign warning that anyone caught escaping the fort during the war would be punished by hanging. However, the fort failed to protect Egypt from the French expedition led by Napoleon Ponabart. 1-2 Hours Pick dream Photos. return to your Hotel in Cairo 2-3 Hours
