Mount Catherine

Mount Saint Catherine (Arabic: جبل كاثرين; Greek: Όρος της Αγίας Αικατερίνης), is the highest mountain in Egypt. It is located near the town of Saint Catherine in the South Sinai Governorate. The name is derived from the Christian tradition that angels transported to this mountain the body of the martyred Saint Catherine of Alexandria. At the summit of the mountain, there is a chapel built in 1905 and a meteorological station.
