But shopping in Port Ghalib? it is better to delay shopping in Port Ghalib
Do not listen to the advice contained in First Choice magazine, which was published in 2008, which describes Port Ghalib as a hidden treasure for bargain hunters. It is one of the most expensive real estate development projects in Egypt, and it is very unlikely that you will find simple handicrafts there at a cheap price. But it is better for you if you want to buy. For a cheap price, you can go to Quseir or Luxor, and if you want to buy from Brut Ghalib, buy if you have a lot of money to spend.

Al-Qusayr means( the short) in Arabic, and the city probably gained this name because it was the port that allowed domestic pilgrims to make the shortest possible journey from the Nile Valley to Mecca. So after taking a look around the castle , you still have more time. You can wander down to the small harbor, which is bordered by closed houses with balconies. It may seem humble, but it has a long history. Queen Abyssinia launched her campaign against the legendary land of Banut (possibly Yemen). Several centuries after the Arab conquest, it remained the largest port on the Red Sea until the 1840s. It was the favorite port for pilgrims traveling from North Africa to Mecca.
After visiting these landmarks, you can go shopping because in Qusayr there is the cheapest market which you can find papyrus, perfumes, shisha, alabaster, silver, and other goods, and this place has a better price because the rents are lower than the rents that are paid in hotels and Port Ghalib, so you can buy many things there.
