Egypt 3-anger after Egypt gaudily

Fresh from the luxury of the flight departure, to fresh luxurious Dubai Airport transfer to Cairo airport, I really was the International Airport a fright: Dim lights, damaged walls, there are almost packed of customs export.

With the arrival in Cairo is a Shanghai drama Center Theatre Group, go to Cairo drama festival.

Several actors to watch the performance Theatre back said: a PIF saw no one over the stage, but he hit two beams, heart of strange, broad daylight, and no one rehearsal, how to play with the light, more electricity. Approaching a point of view, the original is the roof above the stage with two holes.

Theatre break into this way, indeed some exaggeration, but the entire country in the deterioration of the building is very uniform.

Almost half of the civil construction will seem like abuse of poop, grey cement frame and red brick walls were exposed. Several days later realize that many of the residential building only almost all ends here, finished the construction does not have any external wall decoration directly habitable. In Cairo, it seems that only some of the large hotel looks decent.

Alexandria Egypt is the most dignified city, but also remains gloomy suspected abuse of the appearance of the underside.

I take a walk along the beach in the evening, the sudden one dimension of a huge modern building my mind a surprised, although not very clear in the evening, but still can see the large square in front of the buildings and fountains, is surrounded by greenery and sculpture, and even at the door of the trash more stress than elsewhere. Located in a heap of broken House, the building looks bizarre and unexpected.

The door of the police said: here is the Alexandria Library.

Two thousand years ago, Alexander library, the contribution to human civilization can not be ignored.

Its collection of over four hundred thousand books, there was born the Homer on first edit this, also for the first time in the Hebrew Old Testament law into Greece, for the Christian future lay the Foundation for global communication. The library is the core of the Alexandria Museum at buying a including Archimedes, Euclid, elato color, such as a large number of intellectual elite.

I am reminded of the movie "once" Egypt gaudily, a section of the plot, Caesar to help Egypt gaudily after Creole Batra and set fire to the ship, accidentally detonated and the Alexandria Library, the Creole Batra is where this went to Caesar, said "the only mission of voice quivered.

This story makes me feel a bit pretentious, one is in the air waves of political struggle, on the death of the woman who grabbed the regime and preservation of a library, both of which or which light is obvious. Even if the library that is Caesar helped her gain political power that comes with the price of one.

After the period of Egypt gaudily Alexandria Library destroyed 48 years BC, the new Bibliotheca Alexandrina was built in 2000, not necessarily also the, presumably for two thousand years, between after some reconstruction.

Every place you need image engineering, weak countries will also have a decent attractions.

Alexandria Library probably even Egypt's attractions, but why choose library instead of something else?, Creole Batra's angry look was not so naive.
