On the
north coast of Egypt is the charming city of Alexandria .It lies on the
Mediterranean Sea, which is on the western edge of the Nile Delta .It's 20 Km
long from east to west and only two Km wide. The main port is Ras Al-Tin, while
the eastern Harbors used mostly by fishing and pleasure craft. This port handles
about 80% of Egypt import and export trade .Today Alexandria is the largest port
in Egypt. Alexandria's population is 3,380,000 and it is the second largest city
in Egypt .
The city became famous for it's great
library and for the Light house of Alexandria ,which is one of the seven wonders
of the world .Every year the atmosphere and the beautiful cool weather draw
thousands of holiday -makers to the water front cafe and beautiful beaches
.
