THE MOSQUE INSIDE QAITBAY

This is the Mosque inside The Qaitbay Citadel. The Qaitbay Citadel is one of the most important defensive strongholds, not only in Egypt, but also along the Mediterranean Sea coast. In 1480 AD, the Circassian Mameluke Sultan Al-Ashraf Qaitbay fortified the place as part of his coastal defensive against the Turks.


I hope you enjoy today's photo and continue the journey with me as I post photos from all my adventures around the world.

Remember all my photography is for purchase and can make a great gift for yourself or someone you love.
