Eastern Exchange Hotel, Port Said, Egypt - Circa 1902: A Glimpse into the Past of this Historic Waterfront Landmark Nestled on the shores of the Suez Canal in Port Said, Egypt, the Eastern Exchange Hotel stands proudly as a testament to the rich history of this bustling port city. This photograph, taken circa 1902, offers a glimpse into the past of this iconic waterfront landmark. The Eastern Exchange Hotel, with its distinctive red-tiled roof and whitewashed facade, exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. The hotel's prime location, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, provided guests with breathtaking views of the canal and the endless expanse of the sea. Port Said, founded in 1859, was a thriving hub of international trade and commerce, attracting travelers from all corners of the world. The Eastern Exchange Hotel, with its strategic position, catered to the needs of these globetrotters, offering them comfortable accommodations and excellent facilities. The photograph reveals a bustling scene of activity, with horse-drawn carriages and camel-drawn carts lining the streets, and people going about their daily business. The Suez Canal, a marvel of engineering, can be seen in the background, connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea, and shortening the sea route between Europe and Asia. The Eastern Exchange Hotel, with its warm hospitality and scenic location, played a significant role in the history of Port Said and Egypt. This photograph, taken over a century ago, transports us back in time, allowing us to experience a moment in history and appreciate the charm and allure of this historic waterfront landmark.
