Alexandria Cheap Holidays
Alexandria Cheap Holidays
Alexandria is the "Pearl of the Mediterranean". The second largest city of the ever fascinating Egypt. Lying in the north of the country where the River Nile meets the Mediterranean Sea. A popular jaunt for holiday makers the world over and an ideal cheap holiday destination too. The perfect place to take in the sun rays and enjoy some of the countries favourite beaches. Egyptians flock here in search of the haven that is Alexandria, away from the bustling capital. A holiday to Alexandria feels more like a holiday to the Med... Rather than the Middle East. The Sphinx of Alexandria and the Citadel are two of the best sightseeing hotspots in the city as well as the Lighthouse. In Ancient Egypt it was probably one of the tallest structures around and has since been labelled one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Pompey's pillar is located in Alexandria - one of the most well known Ancient monuments still standing today! And located within a stones throw of the fabulous Alexandria Aquarium, the Alexandria Zoo and the cities top museums - The Graeco-Roman and the Royal Jewellery museum. The Montaza Palace and royal gardens are tremendous too.
Downtown Alexandria is probably the liveliest place, lined streets of antique shops, boutiques, restaurants and cafes. The seafood available is amazing. Budget hotels are available here as well as the luxury! Make sure you visit the tomb of the Unknown Soldier whilst you're in the district. Long days lazing on the stunning beaches, awaiting awesome diving opportunities are great ways to spend your days too! And a cheap holiday to Egypt is never complete without the array of Golf, Tennis, horse riding and other sports facilities that can be found!
