The Sinai Peninsula

The Sinai Peninsula is a triangular landmass forming a bridge between Africa and Asia, located in northeastern Egypt. It is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north and the Red Sea to the south, making it a strategic crossroads for trade and military history. The region features rugged mountains, desert landscapes, and important archaeological sites, including Mount Sinai, where biblical traditions place Moses receiving the Ten Commandments. Today, Sinai is known for its tourism, especially near resorts like Sharm El-Sheikh, and for its geopolitical significance, as it has experienced various conflicts and peace agreements over the years.
