The Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa in Alexandria, Egypt is one of the most impressive ancient attractions in the city. These subterranean chambers were built in the world's first subterranean burial complex, constructed during the 2nd century. It consists of three levels, and features stunning sculptures, reliefs, and paintings, displaying Greco-Roman and Egyptian elements. Highlights here include the nine-meter-tall rotunda, complete with spiral staircase and false dome, and the Chamber of the Caracalla, with its painted ceiling depicting a sun-disk among colored stars. Other interesting features include the wall paintings, statues, and funerary objects. The catacombs were declared a Unesco World Heritage Site in 1979.
