We saw the remnants of the Lighthouse of Alexandria when we were in Alexandria, Egypt on March 7, 2009. As you look out to the Mediterranean Sea, the Lighthouse was on the left side of the harbor. Fort Qaitbey (visible in the picture) was built on the site of the Lighthouse in the 15th century, using some of its fallen masonry.
