One Day Trip St. Antony's & St. Paul's Monasteries from Sahl Hasheesh

You think that near the Red Sea you can only find touristic entertainment, but no history and culture? You're wrong! In about 200 km from Hurghada near the village of Zafarana you find even two remarkable pieces of history: the monasteries of St. Antony and St. Paul were founded around 1,600 years ago by the early Christians around the tombs of the admired eremites Antony and Paul. Surrounded by nothing but mountains and sands and still inhabited, these sanctuaries seem like a small spiritual world of its own. Discover with us this very special place.
