Library of Alexandria (ancient)

The Library of Alexandria was an ancient center of learning in Egypt, founded around the 3rd century BCE. It aimed to collect all the world's knowledge, gathering texts from Greece, Egypt, Persia, India, and beyond. It served as a hub for scholars studying philosophy, science, and literature. Unfortunately, the library suffered several destructive events over centuries, leading to the loss of many priceless manuscripts. Despite its destruction, the Library of Alexandria remains a symbol of the quest for knowledge and the importance of preserving human understanding across generations.
