After four days in Cairo, Egypt's capital, on the fifth day a convoy led by Steward James arrived in Alexandria, another large city in Egypt. Alexandria is a world-famous port that has been famous all over the world since 3,000 years ago, and Alexandria's lighthouse is also the tallest, largest and earliest lighthouse in the world.

Another famous attraction in Alexandria is the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, the world's first encyclopedia library. Although it was damaged by the war, it still retains many intact buildings and retains many historical documents. But just looking at these historical documents, you can't hold them in your hand, but they are sealed in glass boxes, and the words on them are all hieroglyphs, so you can't understand them at all.

In addition to hieroglyphs, the most common is the writing of the ancient Roman period, and the most special thing is that the material from which these scrolls are made is not cloth. Rather than a characteristic Egyptian papyrus paper, like a little bit of paper connected horizontally and vertically, in some places you can see horizontal fibers and vertical fibers superimposed on top of each other.

One by one, it is a bit like a Chinese bamboo piece, all of which are products of the same era, and Alexandria is also a famous harbor, and the seafood in the harbor will definitely be dazzling. In particular, there is a seafood Grand Bazaar in Alexandria which is particularly famous.

Every morning from the early hours of the morning, the Grand Bazaar of these seafood products is bustling with wholesalers from all over Egypt. All kinds of fresh seafood caught from the Mediterranean or from the Atlantic, due to the late arrival of Yang Yong with people, when he came to this very famous seafood bazaar in the whole of Africa, it had already ended.

There are only a few stalls selling some of the more common seafood varieties, which are very fresh, but they are all ordinary products. If you want to buy the best seafood, you should come back tomorrow, but how can Yang Yong have that time? He just took his family to take a cursory look at what kind of state this is the most famous seafood bazaar in Africa. After a few things to sell, I took my family to one of Alexandria's most famous seafood restaurants.

ordered a large table of seafood delicacies with Egyptian specialties, and ate very happily, Yang Yong also asked Butler James to distribute a glass of two-to-two centennial Moutai to everyone very luxuriously. Of course, eating seafood should be accompanied by liquor, and the best one is Huaxia Moutai, of course, with some vodka and agave, which is also good.

In the afternoon, Yang Yong deliberately took two hours out of his family to Alexandria with his two children. Fishing with a sea fishing rod, as for how many fish can be caught, Yang Yong doesn't care. Yang Yong only cares about parent-child activities such as cultivating children's patience, and if you want to point to the fishing rod and catch seafood to eat, you have to starve to death.

The fish didn't catch, but the small finger-thick miscellaneous fish did catch a lot. In the end, these little trash fish were fed to the seagulls by the two unlucky children, and today these seagulls are copied. Enjoy a hearty meal as the Young family finishes their dinner early at dusk to get ready for Alexandria's most famous night market.

The night market is quite famous in the area, and there are many local specialties for sale in the night market, as well as a variety of goods. Everyone can eat and play at the same time, and there are even many singing and dancing performances in it, but the Yang family did not book a hotel in Pressure Mountain. So I had to return to Cairo overnight, and then the next day I left the house and took the whole family in the car, and walked east to another famous city, Suiz.

Because the Suez Canal is one of the few mega-canals in the world, the construction time is absolutely shocking because the canal was dug thousands of years ago. Especially during the Egyptian War of Independence, many people died for this canal, and they forcibly snatched control of this canal from the British.

But the good times did not last long, and war broke out between Egypt and Israel, especially the Sinai Peninsula, which was robbed by Israel. And then it was snatched back by means of war, which can be described as ill-fated, after all, it is the main transportation route from Europe to the Indian Ocean and to Asia, and it belongs to the throat.

Whoever controls the Suez Canal earns a lot of money every year, let alone close the Suez Canal. It will make all countries feel uncomfortable, and it is also an important negotiating weight, if you don't take the Suez Canal, you can only detour through the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa, which is not a length that ordinary shipping companies can afford. The cost has more than doubled, so the Suez Canal is the lifeblood of Egypt and a boutique city for tourism.

The city of Suez is located on the top of the Suez Canal, close to the Red Sea, and the scenery of the East China Sea is particularly beautiful. And it is also rich in pearls, which can not be helped, who makes the Middle East a paradise of sand, the seaside is full of sand, and there is a lot of sand. It brings a lot of nutrients to make those sea creatures in the Red Sea or the Persian Gulf grow healthy and strong, but it causes a lot of trouble for some shellfish.

Everybody knows how pearls are formed, because the sand gets into the bodies of these pearl-producing shellfish. Rubbing its body, it feels very itchy, so these shellfish produce a substance that envelops the sand. If the pearl is cut horizontally, you can see that the cutting surface has a circle of material like growth rings, which is also an important means to identify real and fake pearls.

The Red Sea in Egypt is also the main pearl producing area, and the quality of pearls is quite domineering, of course, the price of good pearls will be very expensive. In particular, some colored pearls make those women want to stop, of course, these high-end jewelry items are out of reach for others.

For the Yang family, it was just a drop in the bucket, and the women in the family were in one of the best jewelry stores in Suez. After choosing several sets of pearl jewelry, the men of the Yang family came to a humble store without a sign in the old town of Suez to select products.

The only product in it is the same, that is, the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf, which are rich in one type of seafood, shark fins. In the past, Arabs were not very interested in sharks and would not eat shark meat or any part of their body, but since the rise of the Asian economy, rich people abound. Of course, I yearn for the good things that I couldn't eat before, and shark fin is a very best-selling product, which is called the holy product in the soup together with bird's nest.

The Persian Gulf and the Red Sea are in the tropics, and no one catches sharks, so this area is overrun with sharks. I don't know when someone started this industry? The Persian Gulf makes a lot of money by catching sharks from the sea, making shark fins into dried products, and shipping them to Asia.

At the beginning, the sharks in the Red Sea region of the entire Persian Gulf can be regarded as blood mold, and these poor fishermen no longer fish. Instead of risking their lives to collect pearls, they choose to catch sharks, cut their fins and make dried products, which are shipped to Asia for large sums of cash.
