Alexandria, Mosque Square (Mosque sq.)

Description:

The Mosque of El Mursi Abul Abbas is built on the site of the tomb of the saint, whose name can be found from the name. To erect a beautiful historical monument, according to legend, ordered the richest man in Alexandria. But this was not the mosque that we can see now - originally on this place was a modest mausoleum. Later, a mosque was built around this mausoleum, which was later rebuilt and rebuilt. Every year it seemed to grow, acquiring new extensions, until it acquired a familiar look.

You can find this mosque inside the Anfushi district, in the city of Alexandria. Alexandria is always waiting for you at the airport.
