Additional Information

Ar - Rashid Town, founded approximately in the 9th century, experienced significant growth as Alexandria declined after the Ottoman invasion of Egypt in 1517. However, its prominence faded as Alexandria regained its status. Throughout the 19th century, it was a notable destination for British travellers, admired for its delightful Ottoman houses, citrus orchards, and relative cleanliness.
