The ambiance is enhanced by candlelight and lanterns, creating a serene atmosphere. Technology is not permitted, ensuring a true escape from the modern world and promoting a peaceful, stress-free experience
Introduction:
The diversity of tourist destinations and programs has increased, and with technological advancements, new materials have emerged that do not align with Egyptian nature or neglected environmental identities, leading to the deterioration of architectural heritage. This has driven a trend toward using local materials in architectural and interior designs. Consequently, people have become more inclined toward comfort, seeking places for relaxation away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Over the past two decades, Egypt has focused on tourism development, assuming that its continuous revenues would lead to social and economic development. Undoubtedly, the natural environment is one of the most important resources for tourism development. However, amidst the growing attention to tourism development, there was a lack of synchronization between the benefits of development and the accumulation of negative environmental impacts. Consequently, tourism development activities in Egypt have become a direct source of significant risks to human life and the natural environment due to the absence of an integrated approach to sustainable tourism development and continuous environmental evaluation of tourist areas.
