Today’s Egypt Holiday Photo of the Day is from the Deshret Reithu region. The ancient region of Deshret Reithu near Saint Catherine’s Monastery provided Ancient Egypt with turquoise, gold and copper. Ruins of mines and temples can still be found there. The image was shot for CIB’s 2016 Annual Report (microsite and print edition) by Zeina Abaza at Inktank Communications, which has produced the bank’s annual report for the past eight years.
