Deir Al-Amir Tadros - Asyut

Like many strongholds in Upper Egypt, this 4th-century mountain monastery centers around an ancient church carved entirely out of a limestone cave. Local tradition holds that the Holy Family hid within this specific cliffside cavern to rest and evade Roman checkpoints patrolling the valley.

• The monastery is situated directly on the Nile River.
• It is considered a distinguished archaeological site.
• It features caves carved into the mountain.

Proposed Plan:
To construct a cable car system connecting the Monastery of Prince Tadros with the Hanging Monastery of St. Mina at Mount Abnoub.

Challenges:
Obtaining the necessary permits and approvals for the construction of the cable car system.
