Retreats in the Sinai High Mountain Region, Egypt


by Zoltan Matrahazi

(2010) 100 pages, full colour, 5.5"x8.5"

Despite its religious importance the Sinai High Mountain Region in Egypt remains largely unknown to the general public. This concise book gives background info on the unique orchard farming tradition which lives on from Byzantine times; practical info on how to visit the region and the gardens; two case studies about simple sustainable development models; a map of the region with a list of gardens; and a gallery of 40 full-page images with rare glimpses of snow, spring, gardens and Bedouin life.

The aim of this book is to promote the region and responsible tourism, as well as to raise funds to support gardeners to improve their gardens. Royalties from the sale of this book are automatically transferred to the South Sinai Foundation and are used in full to support gardeners to improve their gardens.

You can download the electronic version of the book for any donation using secure methods provided by PayPal. Write your amount in the box, and either log in to your PayPal account or pay with your debit or credit card.


You can also get the book in print from Amazon. However please note: despite the high price - because of the high printing costs and fees - the profit is very small. If you want to support the garden initiative, please donate by downloading the electronic version or directly to the foundation.
