Sidi Gaber (Arabic: سيدي جابر) is a neighbourhood in Alexandria, Egypt.
The interior section of the neighborhood contains the Sidi Gaber railway station, the main rail entry point to Alexandria for most travelers. The station is one of the oldest in Egypt, having served the eastern regions of the city before their transformation into major urban districts (they had previously been summer resorts for foreigners and wealthy and middle-class Cairenes). As of 2011[update], the station is undergoing expansion, with the intent to turn old parts of the station into a railway museum, and include space for commerce in the newer sections.
