- Rashid Citadel of Qaitbay - Your journey begins with a pickup from your hotel in Alexandria to visit the Qaitbay Citadel, one of the most significant fortresses along the Mediterranean coast. Constructed by the Mamluk sultan al-Ashraf Abu al-Nasr Qaitbay between 882 AH/1477 AD and 884/1479 AD, it stands on the remnants of Alexandria’s Lighthouse and was a key defense against naval invasions.
Built from limestone, the citadel covers an area of about 17,550 m². It is encircled by an outer wall equipped with defense towers.
An inner wall encloses the citadel’s courtyard, which contains several rooms used as barracks and storage.
