with their nicely cut yellow, wooden windows and green-and-brown doors fill the skyline. Above them beams of red and orange light radiate from the moon. the village gives its visitors the feeling of being at home away from the artificial nature of hotel life.
Inside the one-storey homes of the village, tourists spend totally Nubian times. In just few days in the village, they sleep in the homes of the Nubian residents, eat their food and drink local drinks.
Most village homes are divided into two parts, one for the manufacture of Nubian products, such as handmade hats and dresses and the Nubian drink hibiscus as well as the locally made groundnuts.
The other part of the homes is specified for the hospitality of the tourists. Outside the homes, women and children make products to sell to the hundreds of visiting tourists. West Suhail is an intrinsic part of the itinerary of many tourists visiting southern Egypt. Residents want tourists to lead the Nubian life, which gave rise to the village in its original place of a century ago. A lifetime journey that cannot be missed or trespasses.
