It included literature and materials in literature, science and technology, art, philosophy and other fields, attracting famous scientists, philosophers and other places. Thinkers and artists came to visit, such as Archimedes and Euclid, to conduct research, lecture, write books and engage in other academic exchanges.

The ancient Alexandria Library was built in the early Ptolemy Dynasty in the third century BC. It was the largest library in the world at that time. It collected more than 500,000 volumes. It included literature and materials in literature, science and technology, art, philosophy and other fields, attracting famous scientists, philosophers and other places. Thinkers and artists came to visit, such as Archimedes and Euclid, to conduct research, lecture, write books and engage in other academic exchanges. Alexandria became the world's cultural and scientific center at the time. The Ptolemy dynasty was also distinguished by its talents, producing a group of astronomers, geographers, mathematicians, medical scientists and linguists who made outstanding contributions to the world's scientific and technological culture. The new library is located on the seafront avenue of Alexandria on the southern shore of the Mediterranean, next to the large statue of the "Bride of the Mediterranean", which costs $110 million, is novel and unique and eye-catching. The new library covers a comprehensive range of subjects, including the main library, youth library, blind library, planetarium, manuscripts display hall, ancient books museum, cultural relics museum, science and history museum, taking into account the needs of children, blind people and visually impaired people; The books are all-inclusive and everything. For Alexandria and visitors from all over the world, the Library of Alexandria is a wonderful place.
A library in downtown Alexandria, when passing by here, saw this building, the library is also a collection of many historical books, is the most famous library in Egypt, the interior design is very distinctive, up and down a platform.
A gorgeous new building, charming inside and out. The fact that it is located on the site of the ancient Alexandria Library is also special. As for what you will experience - light, space, books, visitors, and then three museums on the first floor. One is precious books and documents that require an additional fee to enter. If you have time, you can visit the library with a guided tour.
Seeing the rebuilt Alexandria Library during Mubarak is far from the book. Looking back at the Mediterranean, I feel deeply that the once-largest city in the Western world is completely lacking in the style of the book.
The great Alexander the Great, who in his thirties built a great empire across three continents of Asia, Africa and Europe, was inseparable from his cleverness and his contribution to scientific development as a student of Aristotle was enormous. Unfortunately, this treasure-filled library was destroyed in Pompey's hands.
Located on the Mediterranean side, opposite the Mediterranean scenery. The museum is in a strange shape and beautiful shape. It is the largest library in the Middle East. Many students from Alexandria University around
The library is an incredible, modern building that is worth walking around. Make sure to take some time to go though the museums that are in it as well.
