Where Should I go: Alexandria or Madhya Pradesh?
Alexandria
There are few cities in the world with a history as rich, deep, tragic and fascinating than Alexandria, Egypt. Founded by Alexander the Great in 331 BC, Egypt's second largest city has seen the most extreme ups and extreme downs. The city watched the beautiful and iconic Alexandria Lighthouse crumble to the ground after several natural disasters. The Alexandria Library housed their most sacred and historical documents only to be burned to the ground. These structures may be physically gone, but the history remains. Alexandria is a city with an ancient allure that draws in visitors from all over the world. Alexandria is a survivor city ready for a comeback.
Madhya Pradesh
Translating to "central region," Madhya Pradesh is a state centrally located within the plains of India. While it is not a major tourist hub, the region has plenty to showcase in regards to the history, art, religion, and culture of central India.
