This special city offers many fascinating features, combining trade, history, and culture. My first encounter with Shalateen goes back about fifteen years when a group of friends from Heliopolis in Cairo went there on a fact finding trip for a Tourism Company.
Needless to say they had been furnished with all required documents and equipment enabling them to travel to this little known destination, on the south east coast of the Red Sea.
