A wonderful historical place worth visiting and contemplating
It takes more than three hours to roam the castle walls and see the narrow and secret cannons
Also, seeing the sea from the top of the castle walls and taking memorial photos is one of the most important things that you should do while visiting the beautiful Qaitbay castle

The historic Citadel of Qaitbay occupies a unique location in the Al-Anfoushi district in Alexandria, where the Marine Sciences Center is located next to it, which is also a place for the public, and the castle is of course as a distinctive tourist attraction, but the image is distorted by the presence of groups of professionals occupying tourist areas and attractions, making monuments for tea, renting the calf and selling some food, and this of course shows the inability of the state to The best use of archaeological areas

Very great historical place. But ignorance and neglect is clearly demonstrated as the smell of urine in many places of the citadel. Added to that closure of the top floor is disappointing.

The castle is really wonderful and beautiful and its design is simple, not gigantic like other castles, but it is also not small as it appears in the pictures, and inside it is also a natural ventilation system through some holes that look like a well and end in front of the sea below the castle

Definitely worth a visit while in Alexandria. It's pretty cheap and they offer a student discount. The views of the mediterranean were unreal!

Do not ask anyone else to take your picture! Our tour guide warned us that a lot of the people steal your phone after you give it to them or make you pay them after the picture if you want the money back.

Also, There is a room at the top that is blocked off because apparently it is still furnished and they want to preserve the furniture.

Modern Alexandria is an elongated sprawl of sun-bleached concrete stretching for miles along Egypt s Mediterranean coast. Since antiquity the sea served as the city s lifeline to the civilized world. The Fort of Qaitbey, located at the entrance of the ovular eastern harbor, is a relic of the city s storied status as a trade center and global power. It was built in the 15th century by the Mamluks on the exact site of the Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. These days the fort is Alexandria s star attraction and is particularly popular for young Egyptians on field trips. Its ramparts and turrets offer beautiful unobstructed views of the awe-inspiring, seemingly limitless Mediterranean Sea on one side, and the city s faded but charming boat cluttered harbor and skyline on the other.

The surprising lack of other Western visitors will work to your advantage, so bring your camera and strike up a conversation with some of the friendly Egyptian tourists, who will be happy to take your picture (no baksheesh necessary!). From the outside, the cream-colored citadel itself cuts a striking figure against the bright blue sky. It s best to visit early (9am) to avoid the crowds and harsh midday Egyptian sun. The entrance fee is around 15 Egyptian pounds.
