El dahar

This guide to El Dahar market in Hurghada traces the old fishing settlement the rest of the city grew out from, and the crossroads where a grocery bazaar and a clothing souk face off across the street. You'll hear how the market took shape shopfront by shopfront as fishing families rented out their ground floors, and why it still serves Egyptians shopping for dinner rather than tourists. Keep walking toward the water, where the old harbor still sits.
