it was a disappointment to find the famous Alexandria Library closed ... books in a street stall not quite a replacement for the library ...

And,definitely Adele, neither the new Library is quite a replacement of the famous ancient one built by Ptolemy the successor of Alexander the Great and burnt down...World continues....regards alexander

Photo lively and very interesting.A pity find enclosed the famous library, but I adore these scuffed stalls where you can find a good book on the cheap.
All the best,
Carlo

no, not a replacement! but you photographed the stalls beautifully! they make a colorful motif, and the composition with its view around the corner – great! it conveys a very lively and authentic mood. the reading vendor – daily news, i suppose… – makes it look especially dynamic and contemporary! hugs, sabine.Joëlle Millet 01/03/2015 18:20
Jolie scène colorée et riche . J'aime ce bric à brac où l'on peut passer son temps à fouiller . Bisesarchiek 01/03/2015 16:45
From the city of the first great library we get this wonderful street book store. Good details and light control. Looks like a place I would like to browse for a while, if I could read them.Nice street scene.
Regards,
Archie

I can understand fully that youwere disappointed.
But surely you could take some
pictures from the outside ?

Hier stöbern wäre so schön, wenn doch die arabische Schrift nicht wäre.Ein beeindruckendes Dokument über die Lesefreude der Ägypter.
