Very pleasant indeed, imo. It cools down rapidly when the sun sets, so take something a bit warmer or the evenings.
Travel Tips for Alexandria
Alexander the Great–founder of the city
by Kuznetsov_Sergey
The Egyptians welcomed Alexander the Great when he entered the country in 332 B.C. He spent only several months in Egypt as part of his on-going campaign against the mighty Persian Empire of Darius III. Alexander initiated the building of Alexandria, but never lived to see the city. He left Egypt in 331 B.C. and left Cleomenes of Naukratis in charge of the territory. This position was later claimed by Ptolemy. When Alexander died, Ptolemy's generals divided the kingdom.
Alexander would never return alive to see the city he had founded, it would be considered as his final resting place when his embalmed body was returned there for burial only 10 years later. Alexander the Great's tomb still has not unraveled, and locating the burial of Alexander seems to have become an impossible mission for archaeologists.
But nevertheless his name is linked with the modern city forever though I very doubt if he ever visited this area and if it was so it happened much later than we are told by historians…
The monument of Alexander the Great stands now near the modern building of the Library.
