EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enchanting scene of Hotel Victoria, situated on the western bank of Lake Timsah in Ismailia, Egypt. Established around the turn of the 20th century, the hotel was named after Isma'il Pasha, the third Khedive of Egypt, who gave his name to this bustling city on the shores of the Suez Canal. The serene waters of Lake Timsah reflect the tranquility of the surrounding landscape, dotted with palm trees and lush greenery. The hotel, with its elegant white façade and red-tiled roof, stands proudly on the lake's edge, its verandas offering guests a breathtaking view of the water and the nearby docks. Children play and laugh on the shore, their joyful energy adding to the lively atmosphere. Ships and boats of various sizes can be seen anchored at the docks, their sails billowing in the gentle breeze. The stage and stages along the shoreline suggest a vibrant social scene, with music and dancing likely taking place in the evenings. The Hotel Victoria was a popular destination for travelers passing through Egypt during the 1900s, offering a respite from the arduous journey along the Suez Canal. Its charming architecture, picturesque location, and warm hospitality made it a cherished memory for many, and this photograph serves as a beautiful reminder of a bygone era.
