5 Star Hotels In Jordan
Star gazing , Camel riding & Bedouin dinner In Sinai Desert From Sharm El Sheikh
Over the past 30 years the Sinai has become a tourist destination due to its natural setting, rich coral reefs, and biblical history. The most popular tourist destination in Sinai are Mount Sinai (“Jabal Musa”) and St. Catherine’s Monastery, which is considered to be the oldest working Christian monastery in the world, and the beach resorts of Sharm el-Sheikh, Dahab, Nuweiba and Taba. Most tourists arrive through Eilat, Israel and the Taba Border Crossing, by train or bus from Cairo or by Ferry from Aqaba in Jordan.
Most of the Sinai Peninsula is divided among two Egyptian governorates, or provinces, named Ganub Sina (“South Sinai”) and Shamal Sina (“North Sinai”). Three more governates span the Suez Canal, crossing into African Egypt. el-Sewais (“the Suez”) is on the southern end of the Suez Canal, el-Isma’ileyyah in the center, and Port Said in the north.
Approximately 66,500 people live in Ganub Sina and 314,000 live in Shamal Sina. Port Said itself has a population of roughly 500,000 people. Portions of the populations of el-Isma’ileyyah and el-Suweis live in Sinai, while the rest live on the western side of the Suez Canal. The combined population of these two governorates is roughly 1.3 million (only a part of that population live in the Sinai, while the rest live on the western side of the Suez Canal). Sinai is one of the coldest provinces in Egypt because of its high altitudes and mountainous topographies. Winter temperatures in some of Sinai’s cities and towns reach −16 °C (3.2 °F).
Large numbers of Egyptians from the Nile Valley and Delta have moved to the area to work in tourism, while at the same time development has negatively affected the native Sinai Bedouin population. In order to help alleviate these problems, various NGOs have begun to operate in the region including the Makhad Trust, a UK charity which assists the Bedouin in developing a sustainable income while protecting Sinai’s natural environment, heritage and culture.
