"穷游族"夏季出境游指南,五大好去处

Egypt

埃及

Popular resort areas in Egypt, like Sharm El Sherk, are as relaxing as they ever were —and also less stressful for your wallet. “The overall sentiment is that resort areas like Sharm El Sheik are very safe, ” said Tony Cardoza, president of a US travel agency, in an interview with cnn. “But most vacationers appear to prefer traveling to places that haven’t seen as much civil unrest.” That preference has made Egypt a buyer’s market. Low demand also has another benefit: smaller crowds. “Clients going now have been able to get pictures of themselves in front of the pyramids with no other tourists blocking the view, ” Cardoza said.

在埃及，包括沙姆沙伊赫在内的许多热门旅游胜地依旧闲适宜人，同时你荷包的压力也依旧小很多。“像沙姆沙伊赫这样的度假胜地给人的总体感觉就是安宁，”美国一家旅行社的总裁托尼??卡杜萨在接受cnn采访时说。“但大多数度假者似乎更青睐那些社会局势稳定的旅游目的地。”这样的偏好使得埃及旅游进入买方市场状态。当然较低的需求也有一个好处：那就是人少。“现在去埃及的游客能在金字塔前给自己拍张单人照，不会有其他游客来抢镜。”卡杜萨说。

Currency condition: The Egyptian pound is sinking like a stone in futures trading, foreshadowing a devaluation of 50 percent or more, according to BBC News. While that benefits foreign currency holders, it may also lead to inflation.

当地货币情况：根据BBC新闻报道称，埃及镑在期货交易中正迅速下跌，预计将贬值50%甚至更多。这在给外币持有者带来好处的同时，也可能会导致通货膨胀。
