Place des Consuls, Alexandria, Egypt, circa 1890: A Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph captures the bustling heart of Alexandria, Egypt, around the turn of the twentieth century. Taken at Place des Consuls, the image offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and vibrant multiculturalism of this ancient port city. The Place des Consuls, now known as Saad Zaghloul Square, was once the central hub of Alexandria's European community. The name derives from the French and Italian consulates that stood proudly on either side of the square, symbolizing the strong European influence on the city. The photograph reveals a lively scene, with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians moving about the cobblestone streets, while European residents go about their daily business. The architectural diversity of the buildings in the background reflects the various cultural influences that have shaped Alexandria throughout history. The grandeur of the European-style edifices stands in contrast to the traditional Egyptian houses, showcasing the unique blend of Eastern and Western influences that characterizes this remarkable city. The photograph also reveals the bustling commercial activity that thrived in Alexandria during this period. Merchants and traders from around the world gathered at the city's markets, exchanging goods and ideas, contributing to its reputation as a melting pot of cultures and traditions. The presence of the Mediterranean Sea in the background serves as a constant reminder of Alexandria's historic role as a gateway to the East and a bridge between Europe and Africa. This image offers a window into the past, inviting us to explore the captivating history and multicultural heritage of Alexandria, Egypt, circa 1890.
