Dayan Rock, Cenotaph monument in North Sinai Governorate, Egypt.

Dayan Rock is a stone memorial structure near the Mediterranean coast in North Sinai, situated on elevated ground. The monument consists of assembled stone elements and marks a specific location within the desert landscape of the region.

The monument was built in 1972 during a period of territorial changes on the Sinai Peninsula. This era marked major regional developments and shifts in control of the territory.

The monument uses local stone and displays architectural features from the early 1970s. The construction brings together Egyptian and regional design principles of that era into a unified form.

Access to this site requires authorization and coordination with local authorities due to security measures in the region. Visitors should inform themselves about current conditions and follow local guidelines before traveling.

The monument stands at a geographical point where several historical territories converge. This strategic location brings together different periods of regional history at a single place.
