Where to Find the Best Boxes of Chocolates in Egypt -A SceneEats Guide
It's Valentine's Day. You're wrapped in a blanket, sighing at yet another rom-com where the girl gets the guy, the guy pulls off the grand gesture, and everyone gets their happily ever after. Then The Holiday comes on, and there she is—Cameron Diaz, cozied up in an English cottage, face-deep in a box of chocolates, fully embracing life's one true constant: sugar.
Because let's be real—Valentine's Day isn't about overpriced roses, awkward dinner reservations, or existential crises in the name of love. It's about rich, indulgent chocolate that never disappoints. Whether you're head-over-heels and ready to spoil your person (because, let's be honest, they deserve it), rounding up your Galentines for a night of cocoa-fueled chaos, or fully committed to the one relationship that has never let you down—self-love and sugar—we've got you covered.

Tourism Ministry inaugurates new visitor centre of Alexandria's Qaitbay Citadel - Ancient Egypt

The Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities has inaugurated a newly equipped visitor centre at the Qaitbay Citadel in Alexandria, enhancing visitors' experience at one of Egypt's most iconic historical landmarks. The centre, housed within one of the citadel's main tower halls, was developed in collaboration with the French Centre for Alexandrian Studies. The initiative comes as part of a broader objective to raise the standard of visitor services across museums and archaeological sites nationwide, ensuring that guests enjoy not only Egypt's distinguished monuments but also a high-quality and informative experience. 'This centre is a vital step in reimagining how we connect the public with Egypt's layered history, especially in Alexandria, one of the most storied cities of the ancient and modern world,' said Secretary-General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities Mohamed Ismail Khaled. He also highlighted the project's strategic importance within the ministry's ongoing efforts to promote site interpretation and cultural communication. The new facility offers visitors a deeper understanding of the rich historical context of the area surrounding Qaitbay Citadel. It focuses particularly on the ancient Eastern Harbor and the site of the fabled Lighthouse of Alexandria, once one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. These were key elements of the royal quarter of ancient Alexandria and serve as vital touchstones in the city's maritime and architectural legacy. "The centre presents curated information about a number of unique archaeological features associated with the site, including the Royal Harbour, the Timonium (a structure associated with Marc Antony), Antirhodos Island, ancient shipyards, and stone quays," said Bassem Ibrahim, director general of Visitor Services at Museums and Archaeological Sites. In addition, the centre traces the evolution of Alexandria's defensive architecture from the medieval era to the 19th century. This highlights the historical significance of Qaitbay Citadel and the extensive fortifications commissioned by Mohamed Ali Pasha along Egypt's northern coast. The center's exhibit features nine bilingual information panels in Arabic and English, accompanied by detailed maps and diagrams that provide visitors with an engaging narrative of the region's architectural and historical development. A dedicated screening area shows a short documentary film on the ancient lighthouse, while comfortable seating areas invite guests to pause and reflect during their visit. The opening of the Qaitbay visitor centre marks another important achievement in the ministry's vision to transform archaeological sites into fully immersive, educational, and accessible destinations. It also reaffirms Alexandria's place at the heart of Egypt's cultural tourism offerings, inviting local and international visitors to rediscover its maritime past and enduring legacy.

Florence Pugh Stars in Yungblud's Latest Music Video 'Zombie"

Yara Sameh Florence Pugh's latest starring role is in Yungblud's music video for his new track 'Zombie.' Released Friday, the Oscar-nominated actress leads the video as a medical professional struggling with the demands of her personal and professional life. Throughout, Yungblud sings about masking away pain and slipping into a zombie-like state while Pugh's performance delivers his lyrics. 'Oh, I know that I can't live without you / But this world will keep turning if you do / Would you even want me looking like a zombie? / Would you even want me, want me, want me?' he sings throughout the track. By the end of the video, a pair of angel wings appear on Pugh's shoulders. Of the track, Yunblud disclosed that 'Zombie' was 'written initially about my grandmother going through serious injury and trauma, leading her to become a different person to who she was before.' 'It's about the feeling of deterioration and ugliness; shutting out the world and the people we love out of the fear of becoming a burden or an embarrassment,' he said. 'We all want someone or something to comfort us no matter how we are right now or who we become in the future. But it's fucking scary.' Pugh recently starred in the MCU's latest movie "Thunderbolts*" where she led an 'unconventional team of antiheroes' alongside Sebastian Stan, David Harbour, Hannah John-Kamen, Olga Kurylenko, Wyatt Russell, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. The music video was directed by Charlie Sarsfield and produced by Untold Studios as part of the English singer's forthcoming album, Idols. 'Zombie' is the third release from the record, following 'Lovesick Lullaby' and 'Hello Heaven, Hello.' "Idols" arrives June 20 via Locomotion/Capitol Records. Yungblud heads out on his Idols World Tour this summer, commencing in Los Angeles on August 23. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan

Submissions Open for the RSIFF's 48-hour Film Challenge

Applications are open to Saudi nationals and residents aged 18 to 25 with a submission deadline of June 15th, 2025. The Red Sea International Film Festival has opened submissions for its annual 48-hour Film Challenge, inviting aspiring filmmakers across Saudi Arabia to push the boundaries of storytelling. Applications are now open and will close on June 15th, 2025. The challenge is open to Saudi nationals and residents aged 18 to 25. Teams must include two to five members. While all experience levels are welcome, including first-timers, the team leader (who should also serve as the director) must be a Saudi national, and is responsible for submitting the application. Applicants must submit a letter in English (max 1,000 words) explaining their motivation for joining, what they aim to bring to the challenge, and why they want to compete for a residency in France. A short script and links to past film or media work may also be included, though not required. Selected teams will take part in a two-day online workshop on July 11th–12th, covering all aspects of short film production. Attendance is mandatory, except for the writing session, which is for the team's writer and director. Filming will take place on July 18th to the 19th. Teams will create a three to seven minute film exploring one main theme—de-coding, playing, creating, or thinking—and one sub-theme such as memory, time, technology, or breath. A surprise element revealed 24 hours before the shoot must also be included. Films can be in Arabic or English. Arabic submissions must include English or French subtitles. All content must be newly created for the challenge.
