The Citadel of Qaitbay - Alexandria, Egypt

[liverpool-fan]

Hi All,

I have just finished editing some shots from my time in the coastal city of Alexandra, Egypt.

Alexandria is the largest city on the Mediterranean. Alexandria was founded in 331 BC by Alexander the Great, the Greek leader at the time.

The below photos are of The Citadel of Qaitbay, it was built in the 15th-century. It was erected on the exact site of the famous ancient Lighthouse of Alexandria.

The Circassian Mameluke Sultan Al-Ashraf Qaitbay fortified the place as part of his coastal defensive against the Turks, who were threatening Egypt at that time.

I hope you guys enjoyed my photos from The Citadel of Qaitbay - Alexandria, Egypt

Please help me out as I am an amateur photography and would love your feedback.
