Sharm el Sheikh Old Town, also known as Sharm el Maya, traces its origins back to the period following the Six-Day War when the Israelis occupied the Sinai Peninsula. Located in the heart of Sharm el Sheikh, this area was the first resort destination in the region. Today, visitors can explore the Old Market, a bustling hub that offers a mix of traditional and modern experiences. The market’s vibrant stalls and shops provide a glimpse into local life, while the nearby beaches continue to attract sun-seekers and water enthusiasts.
