Once, all these area was under the sea.Ya Salaam! We made a camp in the desert!

Siwa Town

Siwa is a small town with wide palm fields. It is famous for dates and olives. There are some monuments, and big old broken town which is made from salt and cray, looks very fantastic like a lost castle in the isolated place. To see the monuments, we took a donkey taxi :D4x4!

In Siwa, they have special style of decolation. It is too beautiful to use..
This is a traditional Siwa's costume for women. It is used for wedding.
and I am one of Siwa women too!

Lakes in Western desert

Salty Lake; on the way to the great desert from Siwa.

Hot Spring; this is where we made our camp. Near from Siwa. If I walk from Siwa, I would enjoy it as much as I want. Anyway, after breakfast, we run to the spring till we left.
Another Hot Spring; in the desert, far from Siwa oasis, there is a small green place with a hot spring.
Salty lake; there are birds even the water is too salty. When I put my leg in the water, it was wound hardly. Do the birds feel good with salt?
Another salty lake; almost 70 km from Libya. there are no fish. Cleopatra bath; in Siwa town
