Discover more about Stanley Bridge

Stanley Bridge, inaugurated on September 2, 2001, is more than just a functional structure; it's a symbol of modern Alexandria. Spanning 400 meters in length and 21 meters in width, it was designed in the Italian Florentine style, drawing inspiration from the architecture of Montazah Palace. The bridge is considered Egypt's first sea-crossing bridge. The bridge is named after the Stanley neighborhood, which in turn was named in honor of the British explorer Henry Morton Stanley. It features four Islamic-style towers that complement the nearby Montazah Palace, enhancing the city's skyline. The bridge provides panoramic views of the harbor and cityscape, making it a popular spot for leisurely strolls and photography, especially during sunset. Stanley Bridge also plays a crucial role in alleviating traffic congestion in Alexandria, particularly during the busy summer months. Its construction has not only improved transportation but also added to the aesthetic appeal of the Corniche, making it a must-see destination for visitors. Nearby, visitors can find various cafes, restaurants, and shops, offering a taste of local cuisine and culture.
