Yet it was there that the conqueror, Alexander the Great set out to build the most dazzling and most cosmopolitan of ancient great cities. Built from nothing, the city with its perfectly geometric design, would rise as one gigantic block from the land, and become home to up to 1 million people. Its avant-garde style would revolutionise ancient urban design. Ideally situated between two "seas", between two worlds, between the East and the West, Alexandria would become the marketplace of the Mediterranean world. Its unique location would bring it great wealth and allow the building of incomparable structures: the Great Library, veritable centre of universal knowledge, the splendid Serapeum, and the monumental Lighthouse of Alexandria, ready to illuminate the world for centuries to come. Feast your eyes on a reconstruction of the mega-city and its amazing buildings. Once upon a time, Alexandria was built… Athens, Alexandria, Tikal and Rome: these legendary cities are some of the world’s most famous archaeological sites. And yet, they still have not revealed all their secrets. Built as temples of knowledge, these extraordinary cities were the beating heart of the ancient world. How did they come up to life? What was it like to live there? How did they become such centers of learning and invention? From the 5th century BC to the Roman Empire, this compelling documentary series will bring back to life the greatest ancient cities at the height of their powers. Combining stunning CGI reconstructions with contemporary footage of the vestiges of these sites, and with the contribution of renowned experts, this series sheds a new light on these architectural treasures and lost civilizations that laid the foundations of our modern world. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe Free Documentary - History Channel for free: https://bit.ly/2FjRPgV Facebook: https://bit.ly/2QfRxbG Twitter: https://bit.ly/2QlwRiI ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ #FreeDocumentary #Documentary #Megapolis ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Free Documentary - History is dedicated to bringing high-class documentaries to you on YouTube for free.
