A varied and charming collection of 17 papers that bring something new about the people from many countries and backgrounds who traveled to, from and within Egypt and the Near East, either singly or as a group, and explored, observed and recorded, or stayed for a short period of time to improve their health or simply to enjoy the experience. While some travelers kept a diary or journal that has survived until today, others did not. Their travels have to be extracted from the wide range of manuscript sources that are thankfully retained in libraries and archives, or which still remain with their descendants. Sometimes, the name of a traveler is only contained in a few words within a single piece of correspondence or journal entry, yet from such small beginnings and through detective work to link the chance meetings between travelers with a location, or news of a shared event, it is often possible to chart part of a traveler’s journey and bring to life a person who has long been forgotten. These minor characters and their travails often bring a new perspective to well-known places and events.

“Egypt is one of the two wings of the world, and the excellences of which it can boast are countless. Its metropolis is the dome of Islam, its river the most splendid of rivers.” —al-Muqaddasi, c. 1000 To travelers, Egypt is a place of dreams: a country whose lifeblood is a mighty river, flowing from the heart of Africa. Along the fertile fringe of its banks an astonishing civilization raised spectacular monuments that our modern minds can hardly encompass. For centuries this past dominated travelers’ minds—yet the present and its great buildings too engaged their interest and admiration and gave them pleasure. The experience of Egypt has over the centuries inspired travelers to write of what they saw and tried to understand. These travelers’ observations are part of the history of modern Egypt, for seeing ourselves through others’ eyes helps us to understand ourselves. The compilers of this anthology have selected records of travelers from many countries and cultures over many centuries, and, mainly using the Nile for a pathway, here offer these travelers’ observations on the many facets of Egypt. The collection includes extracts from the writings of Herodotus, Strabo, Ibn Hawkal, al-Muqaddasi, Pierre Loti, Rudyard Kipling, Florence Nightingale, and many more.

… “Just ran out the dwarfish row of houses and a soiling wall of a dirty little market then I saw Giza desert with boundless sand and titanic pyramids. The reality of mythology and legends was showed in front of our eyes. Dazzling! Dizzy! Giddy! It was my real feeling at that time. Before that, I never had the same feeling when stood at other wonders. Suddenly felt that everyone’s life was so short. If could compare some tens years of everyone’s life with thousands years of pyramids then it seemed like a piece of stone under pyramid or a pinch of sand in desert. What was real meaning when sand and dust returned to dust and sand?”… …”Long time ago, I was charmed by films of Queen Cleopad and her two famous lovers in history. Could not estimate level of beauty and intelligence of Cleopad. A powerfull Roman King lost his throne and died for her, and then a talented Roman general was defeated in a battle, down and out by her too. What was real reason? Until visit Alexandria, the last battle of Cleopad royal dynasty, I could feel why.”… The journey in Egypt brought many interesting experiences and a special feeling. This book includes stories of my travel in Egypt, the charming land. It is not a guide-book to travel. The writing is my prayer for peace in the earth, finish bombs, children have many foods, nobody is poverty-stricken, everybody can travel. The book was a collection of my experience, impression and feeling of countries, regions where I visited. It included joy, worry, anxiety, surprise and disappointment, suddenness and interest…in Egypt. It was the feeling of pyramids in Giza desert, the impression of mysterious charms of Aswan, Luxor, Cairo, Alexandria… Please read all stories in this book “The journey in Egypt, the charming land”, image and feel…
