Information about Hurghada city
The city of Hurghada is located on the western shore of the Red Sea, at longitude 48′ 33° east and latitude 15′ 27° north, and administratively it belongs to the Red Sea Governorate, and it is the capital of the governorate. It is bordered to the north by the city of Ras Gharib, with a distance of 143 km, and to the south by the city of Safaga, with a distance of 61 km. It overlooks the Red Sea coast to the east, and to the west to the Red Sea mountains. Its beaches cover an area of 40 km of the coastal strip of the Red Sea, and its total area is 460.5 km. It is considered the fourth city. In terms of area, it is ranked among the cities of the Red Sea Governorate after the cities of Ras Gharib, Safaga, and Qusayr. The urban mass of the city extends along the coastal road parallel to the Red Sea coast over a distance of 23 km, while its extension inland does not exceed 3.6 km. The old city of Hurghada (Al-Dahar) extends in a longitudinal strip, confined between two limestone plateaus, one in the east between the old city and the coast, and the other in the west. Therefore, the city of Hurghada is located in a coastal plain whose width varies from one region to another, and its width ranges from 8 to 35 km. This shows the multiplicity of patterns of the urban fabric of the city. The spontaneous and network fabric is concentrated in the nucleus of the city, where the urban structure is random, and is characterized by poor and medium-sized buildings, most of which are close together, in addition to the narrow and winding roads and streets whose width ranges from approximately 3 to 6 meters. As for the organized grid and strip fabric, it prevails in the new urban extensions.
