    • Tourists can visit most of the mosques in Alexandria, but they should dress modestly and women must cover their heads with a headscarf.

    As for the mosque of Mursi Abul Abbas, women can only visit one of its side rooms.

    Remember to leave your shoes at the entry (you’ll get a piece of paper with a number) and collect them on your way out by making a donation (usually 1 Egyptian pound).

    • When you visit the Montaza Gardens, don't forget to go over to the Bridge of Love. It's believed that if a couple kiss on this bridge, their love will last forever.
