About Port Said
Port Said sits where the Suez Canal meets the Mediterranean, a canal-built city of balconied old streets, passing ships and a long beach.
Port Said was founded in 1859 at the start of work on the Suez Canal and named after the ruler Said Pasha. Ships glide past the waterfront, and a lighthouse built in 1869 still stands. The old quarter keeps late-nineteenth-century buildings with wooden balconies, and the green-domed headquarters of the canal authority stands out among them.
Top-ranked sights in Port Said: Suez Canal, Port Said Military Museum.
