The British Telegraph newspaper published a report highlighting tourist attractions in Alexandria and Siwa Oasis, dubbing the latter as the "abode to some of the globe’s most distinct hotels."
Furthermore, the feature delved deep into the wonders of Alexandria, one of the Mediterranean's most captivating coastal cities.
According to the article, Alexandria radiates with life, exhibiting a mix of stunning vistas, combined with luxurious sea-facing accommodations. Historically, Alexandria held its position as a significant cultural epicenter over numerous centuries. The city's majestic lighthouse, verdant gardens, splendid palaces, and legendary library, once a repository of invaluable manuscripts, are still etched in global memory.
The paper also sheds light on Alexandria's archaeological treasures, notably the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa and the Cathedral of St. Mark. Alexandria is a beautiful blend of European aesthetics, particularly French and Italian influences from the 19th and 20th centuries. This historical richness seamlessly integrates with modern landmarks like the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, renowned for its state-of-the-art reading spaces and an intrinsic archaeology museum.
Switching focus to Siwa Oasis, the report praised its eco-friendly, visually captivating hotels. Siwa stands out, not just for its sun-soaked days but also for its ideal autumn weather, making it a recommended tourist destination. Visitors can explore the myriad of attractions, including ancient alleyways constructed from mud bricks, fortified towers, mosques, gardens, minarets, wells, and gates in Old Siwa. The oasis also offers unique souvenirs, pure Siwa salt – considered one of the cleanest globally, and olive oil produced from the thousands of flourishing olive trees adorning the green expanse of Siwa.
