Day4

Alexandria is one of the major ports and the second largest city in Egypt. They have really good seafood

According to the internet, the Library of Alexandria is one of the must go place in Alexandria. The amount of books and arts in the library is shocking. We attended a musical event, the event was really good.
Exterior of Qaitbay Citadel
This is Fort Qaitbey, a fort built by Sultan Qaitbey hundred years ago. Locals told us that this Fort is haunted and you can see ghosts in the fort. We didn't spend much time at the fort, so we didn't get a chance to find the ghosts. :(


We planned to go to a seafood restaurant near the fort, but we went to KFC ("Lexus") instead because we wanted to save it for dinner.


puff fish
The aquarium is located next to Fort Qaitbey, so we decided to go there. The aquarium was decent, but not very impressive, just like all the aquariums around the world.

We went to a restaurant called Samakmak for dinner, a seafood restaurant near Fort Qaitbey. Samak is a type of salt water fish in Egypt, people usually grill the fish before eat. The restaurant is a really traditional house, the restaurant is trying to keep the place as traditional as possible.
