The city originated as a small fishing village and then became famous in the nineties after the Egyptian government paid special attention to it, so it set up hotels and tourist villages in its heart, and some Bedouins still reside there today.The city was famous in the old days as a sea port on the Gulf of Aqaba used by the Nabataean Arabs since the second century BC until 106 AD in storing their goods in preparation for transporting them to the port of Suez by land through the Sinai valleys, thereby controlling the trade route between East and west through Sinai and the port of Dahab. After the October War and the liberation of Sinai, Egypt received the city from the Israeli side in 1982, and it was only the Old Market in the city and a limited number of chalets.
