A classic yellow-and-black Egyptian taxi passes in front of Bibliotheca Alexandrina (مكتبة الإسكندرية), Alexandria's world-renowned modern library built on the historic site of the ancient Library of Alexandria. The library's distinctive tilted circular roof clad in gray panels dominates the background under a partly cloudy Mediterranean sky. This street-level view along the corniche captures everyday urban life alongside one of Egypt's most significant cultural and architectural landmarks, inaugurated in 2002.
