Alexandria is a coastal city in Egypt. Alexandria was founded by Alexander the Great, who gave the city its name, and was intended to be the capital of his empire. After his death in 323 BCE, Egypt became part of the Ptolemaic Empire, after one of Alexander's generals. Cleopatra, whose sunken palace Lara discovers in the sea off Alexandria, was the last of the Ptolemies, at which point Egypt was incorporated into the Roman Empire.

Although it has been ruled successively by Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs and the Ottomans, Lara sees little of the city itself. The area that Lara arrives in is fairly suburban and, given it's proximity to the Coastal Ruins must be fairly close to the sea. Lara's main purpose in Alexandria is to meet up with her friend Jean Yves, who has taken a house that looks onto the courtyard with the fountain in the middle. Jean Yves gives her directions as to where she should continue to search for the pieces of the Armour of Horus, supposedly scattered by Cleopatra herself among the ruined palaces and temples on the coast.

Alexandria, much like the first three levels in Karnak, can be explored at any time by entering via the Coastal Ruins. However, there's not a lot to see.
