General Egyptian Warehouses Reviews

The place of the masterpiece is very hard and wonderful

Love it, beatifull historical spot wz special sea view

I visited it twice in a row because it is a very beautiful place overlooking the sea to feel calm and natural beauty

It needs a lot of attention from the tourism authorities

The unavailability of guiding boards to educate visitors about the castle's different sections ...
We ask for more attention and provide places for visitors to relax and clean toilets.

Lack of control over parking, where he is controlled by a farce of politics.

A beautiful and famous place, which is one of the best places in Alexandria. There is a parking place for cars, easy and easy entry, and the amount does not exceed 20 pounds per person.

Nothing really note worthy to see inside besides the history. Nice taking pictures outside.

Fragrant Egyptian history in the castle with the sea

I used to love the place , but now they closed everything, a lot of construction is happening , u can't enjoy it anymore

People who admire photographeing historical places and buildings will enjoy their stay here, if you want to enjoy try to visit it early in the morning and stay away from weekends.

Excellent place, but not in the morning, the weather is very hot, make the afternoon better

Shi is a respectable and civilized

Of the wonderful places in Alexandria .. And the advantages of the place is a large area wonderful children and adults play with paper

On the beauty of the landscape and the importance of the castle as an impregnable fortress to protect Egypt from the maritime authorities with its architectural splendor

The place is nice but the people there are not good

The spirit of history in Alexandria is one of its most famous landmarks

The origin of Alexandria fun and the beauty of the sea and fishing

Of course, your place has become too wide, not your castle has become very empty there is nothing

Great view of the ocean
History and culture

One of the most important tourist attractions in the city of Alexandria, and is unique in terms of architectural heritage and location

Nice and wonderful place but some visitors are irresponsible

It's a majestic defensive fort built on the Mediterranean sea side in 15th century. On the ground floor it has been converted in to maritime museum and the other two floors are forts to have a splendid view of the sea. It has an entrance fees of 60EGP per person and had good parking place. The day we visited this place it was very crowded due to holidays. Nevertheless the place is very beautiful and one of the must see things in Egypt.

The place is beautifully antique but crowded on holidays
This castle takes the shape of a square with an area of 150 m * 130 m surrounded by the sea on three sides, and this castle contains the walls and the main tower in the northwestern side, and the walls are divided into an inner and an external wall, the inner wall includes the army barracks and weapons stores, and the outer wall The castle has defensive towers on the four sides that rise to the level of the wall, with the exception of the eastern wall, which includes defensive openings for soldiers.
The main tower in the inner courtyard takes the form of a large square castle with a side length of 30 meters and a height of 17 meters. The castle consists of three square floors, and in the four corners of the tower there are semicircular towers that end at the top with prominent balconies, and these towers are higher than the main tower with openings for shooting arrows On two levels, the first floor is occupied by the Citadel Mosque, which consists of a courtyard, four iwans and defensive corridors that allow soldiers to pass easily during the defense operations of the castle. This mosque had a minaret, but it collapsed recently.
As for the second floor, it contains corridors, halls, and internal rooms, and the third floor includes a large room (the seat of Sultan Qaytbay) in which he sits to see the ships on a day's march from Alexandria covered by a cross cellar and on this floor there is an oven to prepare wheat bread, as well as a mill for grinding grain for the resident soldiers In the castle. Sultan Qansuh al-Ghuri renewed the castle and increased its garrison, and this castle was neglected during the period of the Ottoman caliphate of Egypt.

For about $ 4 per pound, you can see the Mediterranean Sea.
What are you going to do in front of the fortress if you don't go in here?
Vivianri's Cleopatra filming location, built at the Paros Lighthouse but destroyed in 1890? Rebuilt fortress.
There are many locals.

A beautiful walk in the castle
Includes views of the ancient sea and Alexandria
Excursion to boat is unique (do not pay more than 90 g for a regular boat)
Next to it is a ring, you can visit it early in the morning

From the historical monuments in Alexandria
It is located directly on the sea and good for hiking

History, civilization and strength, and better benefit from it

The landscape of Alexandria and the beauty of its sea

Awesome old architecture citadel
Need maintenance

Frankly, a wonderful archaeological heritage and I hope it will remain as it is
What is not reasonable, I mean, will they take off the walls and flee them in a container in Egypt?

A distinguished historical place that has prestige, majesty and a sense of the greatness of that era in the history of Egypt and has fictional views due to its direct position on the sea and its magnificent views of Alexandria

So sad because of Covid 19 Aquarium Museum was closed. So sad because the sea in front of the Citadel has turned out to be a lake due to the big mass of stones over the sea. Citadel is still telling the history.

The effects of our country need to give up one rejoice hard

One of the great city's of the old world full of charm and character

One of the most beautiful historical places in Egypt

The greatness of the building ... and the view is very beautiful, of course

One of the most beautiful places in Alexandria is a wonderful tourist attraction and an excellent family park

The need of magnificence and is considered the cheapest exit in Alexandria means has been entered five pounds and all that you want to see the castle and gelato Azza Libra castle is Alfio need magnificence and God advise you to go out de

Haven't been inside but it looks spectacular fron the outside

One of the best tourist places in Alexandria and Egypt

Beautiful and large was built on the ruins of the lighthouse of Alexandria

The place is more than historic
Needs a lot of services and organization

It was a nice experience visiting this place. Also it has a nice view of the city.

Qaitbay Castle, a famous castle in Alexandria, is one of the landmarks of Egypt in general. It was ordered by Sultan Qaitbay during the time of his historic visit to Alexandria in the summer of 1477, and he built it for about two years and was visited by Sultan Qaitbai in 1479 after the building of Khalas.

Sultan Qaitbai was one of the greatest sultans of the Mamluk state and the Mamluk state in general ruled Egypt for 28 years from 1468 to 1496.

It is a beautiful place and heritage and close to specialized fish restaurants, but be aware you buy from corals and anemones because they are forbidden. Of the country

This castle is located at the end of the island of Pharos in the far west of Alexandria, and was built in the place of the ancient lighthouse of Alexandria, which was destroyed in 702 e following the devastating earthquake that took place during the reign of Sultan al-Nasir Muhammad ibn Qalawun. Sultan Al-Ashraf Abu Al-Nasr Qaitbay started building this castle in 882 AH Built in 884 AH.

Amazing seafood !!!
I'm in the sea !!!

Traditional landmark of Alexandria highly recommend visiting if you are a tourist but be careful of the people offering tours with the horse carriages as they will give you a high price if you are a tourist a reasonable price range would be from 100 to 150 pounds (for a tour) but if it's only to walk you around on the horse for 10 minutes then only spend 20 to 50 pounds on that otherwise the citadel is a great place for taking pictures and has such an amazing atmosphere the price for an adult ticket i think is 20 pounds don't let them rip you off and yeah enjoy Alexandria

Historical place citadel on the sea to protect alexandria in the middle ages
