I wasn’t sure of waking up so early to catch the sunrise view at top of the shali fortress , but as soon as i reached there I knew how much i’ll regret if i’ve been there , I’ve seen the most beautiful view that i cannot forget until now , its so hard nowadays to catch up the sunrise view with a lake and old buildings and desert all around it was perfect

EL ALAMEIN WAR CEMETERY contains the graves of men who died at all stages of the Western Desert campaigns, brought in from a wide area, but especially those who died in the Battle of El Alamein at the end of October 1942 and in the period immediately before that. The cemetery now contains 7,240 Commonwealth burials of the Second World War, of which 815 are unidentified. There are also 102 war graves of other nationalities. The ALAMEIN CREMATION MEMORIAL, which stands in the south-eastern part of El Alamein War Cemetery, commemorates more than 600 men whose remains were cremated in Egypt and Libya during the war, in accordance with their faith. The entrance to the cemetery is formed by the ALAMEIN MEMORIAL. The Land Forces panels commemorate more than 8,500 soldiers of the Commonwealth who died in the campaigns in Egypt and Libya, and in the operations of the Eighth Army in Tunisia up to 19 February 1943, who have no known grave.

Whilst in Alexandria we were taken here on our tour, it was a very moving experience with a lovely Australian Memorial built here with the graves of many Australians who lost their lives in the battle of El Alamein. Hundreds of graves here and a big section of Australians. The cemetary is quite well kept, even though its in the middle of sandy desert, with a bit of greenery in between the graves. Well worth a visit if you are in the area. Security was high and we were well looked after.

Although there's no proof that Cleopatra actually bathed here, this spring-fed pool is very popular.
