| Sinai 
                    - land of discovery. The route to the Promised Land; where 
                    Isis sought Osiris and the Pharaohs found gold. Where Moses 
                    witnessed the Burning Bush and Bedouins camped by Crusader 
                    forts. A meeting point for three great religions, at the crossroads 
                    of Africa and Asia.

                          Sinai |  After 
                    8,000 years at the heart of history, experience the continuing 
                    contrasts. Sinai: where rock meets coral reef and the desert 
                    stops at the sea. Where the grandeur of granite meets the 
                    golden beaches of the "Red Sea Riviera". Of tropical fish 
                    and rare birds; spectacular sunsets and clear starry nights.

                    of the few remaining places on earth almost untouched by modern 
                    civilization, Sinai "the Land of Turquoise", is a rocky triangle 
                    of holy places, pilgrim trails and military outposts. Modern 
                    visitors follow in the footsteps of legendary gods and goddesses, 
                    ancient warriors and biblical heroes.  Sinai 
                    remains a land of verdant oases, flat desert expanses and 
                    towering granite mountains, where the Goddess Isis came in 
                    search or Osiris; where Alexander the great fought; where 
                    Moses received the Ten Commandments; and through which the 
                    Holy Family travelled en route to Egypt.
