(pictured: 'Monastery of the Virgin Mary')
'The Monastery of the Virgin Mary' at Gebel El-Teir is an important Christian site near the city of Samalut. Built by Empress Helena, in 328, on one of the sites where the Holy Family is believed to have stayed during its flight into Egypt. The small church interior is cut directly into the rock, pillars form a tiny squared court in front of the typical sacred platform.
