Visiting Mount St Catherine and walking through the Sacred Way is an unparalleled experience, as many amazing monuments and monuments depict the splendor of the architecture, for example, the old wooden door at the entrance of the church 1400 years ago, and the idea of being in the place where many great leaders and famous personalities have walked, strongly influences beyond the ordinary and materialistic view of things.

Gaze up at the towering St Catherine's Mountains, like an enchanting painting of nature in the heart of Sinai. Standing 8563 feet above sea level, this peak is regarded as one of Egypt's tallest mountains. It is called so because, as stated in the traditions of the monks, the angels in the past carried the body of Saint Caterina from the place of her martyrdom in Alexandria in 307 AD and brought her down to this mountain and only the skull and the bone of one of the hands remain, which are preserved in a box inside the church to this day, and one can see from its summit in plain sight the Gulf of Aqaba and the Gulf of Suez, especially if the weather is clear and the sun is shining.

The area of St. Catherine's Monastery is a holy area for the three monotheistic religions, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam; the Great Mount area of St. Catherine's Monastery is one of the holy areas that brought together the three monotheistic religions, so it is called the "meeting point of the three monotheistic religions".
