Overview

Tour to The Bibliotheca Alexandrina (Library of Alexandria)

Tour to The Bibliotheca Alexandrina (Library of Alexandria) Enjoy to visit Bibliotheca Alexandria

the Alexandria library which presented knowledge for over 600 years.

It has a religious purpose for once it was mainly as a temple held many rare manuscripts,

the new library of Alexandria renovation was in 2002,

designed by a Norwegian architect, this article will discuss the ancient bibliotheca and the new version of the library as they both share the same heritage and knowledge.

It is traditionally believed that it was erected on the site of a unique Alexandria library, completely destroyed in antiquity.

Your imagination will be amazed at the amazing architecture of the library building – after all, it personifies the solar disk,

symbolizing the main Egyptian shrine. Its hall is the largest in the world: it seats more than two thousand readers.

 

The complex includes four museums: the Museum of Antiquity, the Museum of Manuscripts,

the Museum of Sadat (former President of Egypt), as well as the Museum of the History of Sciences.

Very interesting Kulturama – a cinema dedicated to the historical and cultural heritage of Egypt.

The screen here has a semicircular shape and consists of nine huge computer monitors.

All screens are interactive, and by clicking on a certain button designating a particular monument,
