 Hello everyone, this is Amit Dan of amitdan.com I arrived in Cairo early morning, and I had the full evening free so I decided to go to the winter and summer churches located on the outskirts of Cairo The monastery of Saint Simon is located in the Mokatan Mountain There are seven churches and chapels hidden inside the monastery of Saint Simon the Thame All within a series of capes The Virgin Mary and Saint Simon Cathedral is the largest church in the Middle East with a sitting capacity of 20,000 in the amphitheater The Cape Church of Saint Simon is literally carved out of the solid rock of the stone mountain The Cape Church is really a natural grotto also known as a summer church There is another underground winter church as well Inside the church you'll find beautiful engravings covering the walls representing stories from the Bible The whole area has lots of engravings and artworks on the walls on the mountains, statues, paintings and carvings and all over Some other Cape churches carved out of the rock are Saint Bola's Church Saint Mark's Church and Saint Simon the Tanner's Hall In recent days there's another church discovered underground which is called the Church of Burned Church or just simply known as the Burned Church It was actually got burned possibly from electricity however the picture of Jesus Christ did not burn So this was kind of a miracle and I saw the signs of smoke and fire on the frame but miraculously the picture got saved without any significant damage The whole area was historic and felt like going back in time especially the engravings on the walls telling various events from the Bible that occurred in Egypt There are lots of visitors both local and foreigners in that area the security presence was noticeable After seeing so many historic places in one area I got tired and we wanted to go for a restaurant or cafe to relax a little bit which will be coming up in the next video Thank you for watching this video I'll see you shortly
