South Sinai MonasterySt Catherine Mount Sinai Monastery
South Sinai Greek Orthodox monastery of the God-trodden Mount Sinai is located at the very place where God appeared to Moses in the Burning Bush, beneath the Mount of the Decalogue. In the providence of God, it is at this site also that the holy relics of Saint Catherine are enshrined. This is the oldest continuously inhabited Christian monastery, with a history that can be traced back over seventeen centuries. The monastery predates the divisions of the Christian world, its origins extending to late antiquity. www.sinaimonastery.com


Bedouin CraftBedouin Craft
My name is Mohamed El Hashash, and I run Bedouin Craft from my home in the El Sebeia Valley, in the remote and mountainous Saint Katherine region of South Sinai. Dwellers of the Sinai Peninsula have been forced over recent years to combine tradition with modern life. Whilst work and education are becoming increasingly important, we also recognise that the culture of our ancient community needs nurturing too. www.bedouincraft.com
