Tourism in Matru

Matru, a small Mediterranean town 300 kilometers west of Alexandria, is quiet and elegant, which makes people feel like embracing their mother's sea.

Entering the beautiful Matru, I feel Egypt's rich tourism resources and great tourism development potential. Museums that remind people of history, exquisite white beaches, strange-shaped rocks and Cleopatra's bathing caves are all landscapes. Listening to the sound of the waves at night is intoxicating and relaxing, and the enthusiasm, simplicity and friendliness of the Egyptians are everywhere.

Matru is near the Mediterranean Sea, with a population of 1.5 million. It is the administrative center of the desert area in western Egypt and the business in the surrounding areas.

And a sales center. During World War II, Matru was once a strategic place for fierce competition between British and German troops. Today, the local museum still retains the battle map and Nazi flag of former Nazi field marshal Rommel, warning people not to forget history.

War has become history, and people are looking forward to development. While enjoying leisure and tranquility, the residents of Matru town are also looking forward to the prosperity of tourism. Osman, 63, was sitting in the street, smoking a hookah in the dark. He told reporters that foreign tourists generally go to famous scenic spots such as Cairo, Luxor and Aswan, and not many people come to Matru. He hoped that more tourists would come to Matru to promote the local economic development.

The tourist season in Matru is from June to September, with only museums, beach sports facilities and dance halls.

It is only open in the peak season. During this period, prices in small towns rose and accommodation fees were high. After the peak season, the number of tourists dropped sharply. The reporter only met three German tourists in two days in Matru, and foreign fast food such as McDonald's, KFC and Pizza Hut on the seaside avenue was also closed. This town is quiet and peaceful. When you wander here, you will feel the gripping purity and beauty, as if you have entered the Peach Blossom Garden and forgotten the noise of the world.
