the garden layout is fantastic, however i dont believe that the gardens itself have been well maintained. also known as "lovers Park" popular hangout with teens. still worth a visit if nothing other than for the size and atmosphere

this place not bad not good as my thought. i wish get better and more observe

good time for walking and wandering the royal palaces and the royal gardens but there are alot of children playing and making noise only at the week end thrusday and friday) try to avoid visiting in the week end but other days it will be fantastic also riding bike is also fantastic

well what could i say it is fantastic how the gardens and palaces there caught my eye.there were flowers and i saw little peacoks and lovely colourful birds.there r also hotels there great!

There were tons of locals here on the grounds and it seemed like a nice place to picnic and relax. You could see King Farouk's palace but it was fenced and gated shut. The opulence that you hear about from him is astounding.

The actual palace is very pretty but the gardens are not well maintained, there is litter everywhere and its all over grown.

We enjoyed strolling through the gardens. On the northern tip there is a pier that has some nice views of the palace. Great place to get away from the noise/pollution of downtown

I enjoyed the stay in Alex by visiting El-Montazah, a wide, vast areas of green gardens, a lot of palms, perfect view over the sea, must visit the light house and pass across the sea bridge ...

We visited Alexandria in march 2010. And this place was really beautiful...along the mediteranean sea..the location was superb.As many have written, many places are restricted for visitors. But still worth a visit.
