Corniche

Alexandria, Egypt

The Corniche in Alexandria, stretching 15 miles along the Mediterranean, traces origins back to 1870 under the reign of Khedive Ismail. Strollers enjoy catching glimpses of local fishermen by dawn, and the promenade lights up beautifully at sunset. Evening visits provide a breezy escape with a touch of history.
