Lightbulb Sights of Alexandria

I was in Alexandria late last year, here are a few pictures from my visit.





I found the city in some ways to be tired looking, lot of the buildings on the cornice were in bad state, although some new ones were being built there too.

Far too many high rise apartments for my liking.

The thing that I really hated are the roads there, especially the one some cleaver person planned to put between the buildings and the beach, which means the people have to take life in their own hands to get to the beach, as it's like a motorway, I think it's about 6 lanes to cross in crazy traffic.



There are a few underpasses but they are about a few kilometers apart
