One Positive Effect of Egypt’s Downturn in Tourism

The country of Egypt experienced a major downturn in tourism in 2011. The cause of this was the January 2011 Revolution, during which the people took to the streets of Cairo and overthrew their government. This downturn in tourism became quite drastic and prolonged due to subsequent events Egypt suffered through, such as a coup which shortly followed the revolution. However, tour company employees now have plenty of time to do other things, like dance in the streets, like these guys in the South Sinai town of Dahab.
