Castle Zaman, Sinai Peninsula, Egypt
What’s special about it? Built in 2004, Castle Zaman was created using ancient construction techniques revived specifically for the project.
An underground treasure room has been excavated from beneath the castle. Here you can experience the marvel of an ancient party trick. Midday on April 22, August 20, December 31, and January 1, a sunbeam passes directly through a hole, and subsequently through a glass lens, to magically light a candle in the darkness of the dungeon. This striking, Abu Simbel-like shrine has been constructed to evoke images of pharonic times.
What kind of events? Team building events, corporate get togethers.
Capacity: Castle Zaman can accommodate up to 150 guests for buffet style dinners.
Best time to go: Ideal for both day time and evening events.
