One of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the lighthouse was the Lighthouse of Alexandria, which was located in the ancient city of Alexandria, Egypt. It was built on the island of Pharos near Alexandria and served as a guiding beacon for sailors entering the city's busy harbor. The lighthouse was constructed between 284 and 246 BC during the reign of Ptolemy I and II and stood over 110 meters (360 feet) tall. It was renowned for its technological brilliance and was one of the tallest man-made structures of its time. The lighthouse guided ships for over a thousand years before being destroyed by earthquakes in the 14th century. Its ruins were rediscovered underwater in modern times and it remains a symbol of ancient engineering achievement.
