About This Design

Alexandria Qaitbay Citadel Travel Postcard

Alexandria Qaitbay Citadel Travel Postcard

Alexandria, Egypt, is a historic coastal city that was founded in 331 BCE by Alexander the Great. Once one of the most important cultural and intellectual centers of the ancient world, Alexandria was home to the legendary Library of Alexandria, which aimed to collect all human knowledge. Though the library was lost to history, the city still retains its legacy of learning and scholarship. The Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, once stood proudly on Pharos Island, guiding sailors into the bustling port. While the lighthouse no longer exists, its influence remains, and the modern Citadel of Qaitbay now stands on its former site, offering stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea. Today, Alexandria blends its ancient past with a vibrant modern atmosphere. The Bibliotheca Alexandrina, a modern reimagining of the ancient library, serves as a cultural hub with millions of books, museums, and exhibitions. The city’s Corniche, a scenic waterfront promenade, is a favorite spot for both locals and visitors to enjoy the sea breeze. Montaza Palace, surrounded by lush gardens, and the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, an underground burial site blending Egyptian, Greek, and Roman influences, showcase Alexandria’s diverse heritage. With its Mediterranean charm, rich history, and lively culture, Alexandria remains one of Egypt’s most fascinating cities.

I had never seen these classic science fiction images and most of my friends have not seen them either. They are like little treasures! Amazing quality and fun to send people!

I joined Postcrossing a few months ago and wanted postcards to represent my state well. I found them on Zazzle. I purchased numerous cards and was impressed with all of them. Excellent! The colors are beautiful. The cards have the exact look I wanted. I couldn't be happier.
