Overlooking the secluded beach, surrounded by date palm trees and gardens, the palace blends Florence and Turkish style and is now the State Guesthouse of Egypt. Montaza Palace was a summer retreat for the royal family until 1952. Now the seaside is open to tourists and anglers, and the palace is not open to the public. Montaza Palace Park is the best place for greening in Alexandria, with a large area. This is a good place for Egyptian families to go out for a picnic, and it is also a romantic choice for couples to fall in love together."Alexandria13.5km from downtown

It was the summer residence of the former kings and members of the royal family, so it is also called the summer palace. Overlooking a secluded beach and surrounded by date palm groves and gardens, the palace combines Florentine and Turkish architecture. One of the buildings with a better view is the Haramlik Palace built on a high ground, which has been converted into a luxury hotel. The current Montazah Palace is more like a park, including a museum, sections of beach baths, as well as restaurants and a fully equipped tourist center.Show Less - 4.44.6/534 ReviewFree
