Egypt (EG) – Israeli
(IL) border
The
southernmost Egypt – Israel dry border is at Taba, about 10 km
southwest of Eilat, Israel. On this photo I am standing in front of the
Israel exit and Egypt entry gate. My left foot is barely touching the
boundary. ( December 2009.) Notice the boundary running up the
hill. The two nation's flags are always on their motherland's soil.
Between the four flagpoles there are two borderfences, one Egyptian and
one Israeli.

Same
motif
Exit
gate Egypt (right) and entry gate Israel (left).
It
was not permitted to take a photo of another person standing on the
borderline. The only way was to take this photo of my shoes!
My left shoe is in Israel and the right is located in Egypt. Photo is
therefore taken while on exit from Israel (Behind where I am standing on
the upper photo).
