Saint Catherine - St. Catherine’s Monastery is located on the Sinai Peninsula, at the entrance of a gorge at the base of Mount Sinai in St. Catherine’s City. This Orthodox monastery is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is among the oldest continuously operating Christian monasteries in the world.
The monastery was constructed by order of Emperor Justinian I, enclosing the Chapel of the Burning Bush, which was commissioned by St. Helen, the mother of Constantine I, at the site where Moses is believed to have witnessed the burning bush; the living bush on the grounds is said to be the original. It is also known as “St. Helen’s Chapel.” The site holds significance for Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
