EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene outside the Khedives Club in Alexandria, Egypt, during the 1910s. The image, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases the British flag proudly flying above the Alexandria Office of Thomas Cook and Son, a prominent travel agency of the time. The agency played a significant role in the burgeoning tourism industry in Egypt and North Africa, facilitating the travel of thousands of tourists from Europe to the exotic shores of the Mediterranean. The Khedives Club, a social and recreational hub for the European expatriate community, is located in the background. The club's awnings provide much-needed shade from the scorching Egyptian sun, as members and guests gather to enjoy a leisurely afternoon. The African porters, dressed in traditional attire, can be seen attending to the needs of the European tourists, adding to the rich cultural tapestry of the scene. The British flag, a symbol of imperial power and influence, stands tall above the office of Thomas Cook and Son, a testament to the strong British presence in Egypt during the colonial era. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of adventure, exploration, and the allure of exotic lands. The image is a reminder of the significant role that travel agencies, such as Thomas Cook and Son, played in facilitating international travel and fostering cultural exchange between different parts of the world. The photograph also highlights the enduring appeal of Egypt and North Africa as popular tourist destinations, with their unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty.
