Lonely Planet review for Midan Tahrir
Midan Tahrir was laid out in 1830 as the centrepiece of Mohammed Ali's new look: Alexandria goes to Europe. The impressive statue on a plinth at the centre of the midan is Mohammed Ali on horseback. A recent clean up has done wonders to accentuate the fine architecture of the square's surrounding buildings.
