New Alamein

New Alamein (Arabic: العلمين الجديدة), is a new fourth generation city in northwestern Egypt inaugurated by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi on 1 March 2018. New Alamein lies on the Mediterranean Sea, approximately 48 km west-northwest of El Alamein International Airport. Still under construction, New Alamein was conceived by the Egyptian government as a center for tourism, education, and government. The city has its own presidential palace and ministry building. Construction is ongoing at New Alamein for three universities, fifteen skyscrapers and high rise towers, and 10,000 hotel rooms. Work has begun on Phase II of the New Alamein megaproject, which includes ten additional coastal towers. New Alamein is now approaching its final stages of necessary developing in order for it to become a operational and habitable megaproject for tourism and residential needs.
