We will drive to St Catherine’s Monastery, located in the heart of the Sinai Peninsula at an altitude of 1,570 metres, at the site where, according to tradition, Moses saw the Burning Bush that was not consumed by fire.
The monastery lies at the foothills of Gebel Moses (Mount Sinai), on whose summit Moses received the tablets of the law inscribed with the Ten Commandments. The monastery dates back to the reign of Emperor Justinian in the 6th century, when the surrounding enclosure walls were also built. It was named St Catherine’s at the beginning of the 11th century in honour of Saint Catherine, one of the earliest Christian martyrs of Alexandria.
