T is for Temples


The only pharaonic temple in Sinai is Serabit el-Khadem – Temple of Hathor, Lady of Turquoise. The temple dates back to 1964 – 1136 B.C. and is surrounded by ancient turquoise mines and beautiful scenery. Reaching the summit of Jebel Serabit involves a several hour trek so be prepared!
