Le Nil traversé (en felouque), on arrive à un camp pour accéder au monastère à dos de dromadaire (25 EGP par personne en pourboire). Le paysage est désertique, la montée (et la descente) est un peu délicate du fait de la pente. Le monastère chrétien est très ancien (VIIème siècle), n'est pas bien conservé voir est en ruine. Le troisième étage (grenier) a disparu. Ce monastère est le siège d'une fête annuelle chrétienne (Copte). Beaucoup d'inscriptions contemporaines sur les murs, parfois sur des peintures d'époque toujours visibles. Un certain nombre de détritus laissés sur le sable gâchent l'atmosphère très dépaysante du lieu.
