Alexandria is practically built on top of the old city,so I would not be surprised if there were to be extraordinary discoveries in the future.Among them Alexander's mausoleum.
In 1967 and for many years afterwards Alexandria was dead in
every sense of the word.Many foreigners lost their properties and belongings and just ran away.
Many of these gorgeous properties are still there, gorgeous homes as you can see them in the pictures in this book.
El Attarin is the place to find so many antiques,which in New York would be sold for thousands of dollars.
You can also learn and read about the different influences of cultures that created Alexandria.I strongly feel that this is the best book on Alexandria I have seen so far.
It shows the Old and New Alexandria,its old history and today as it is developping.
Very well done and very well written.
