Travel Egypt Guide, map of egypt

Most people who think of Egypt think of antiquities, but Egypt offers much more. Certainly it is a prime location to see our great heritage from the ancient world, including Pyramids and wonderful temples, but it is also part of the Holy Land, and tours to Christian and other religious monuments are popular. Yet Egypt also offers nature and desert treks, great scuba diving and even golf, fishing and birding expeditions. One may choose to relax on the wondrous Egypt Red Sea or Sinai coasts, take in the high culture of Cairo, or even leisurely float down the Egyptian Nile on a luxurious river boat.

Dakhla - Magic Spring

The name "Magic Spring" is a touristic invention, something I discovered when trying to locate it without professional help. Most locals from the nearby village hadn't a clue what and where about any magical spring.

But we found it, and it is worth the effort. Big and small bubbles continuously pop on the surface of this pond which functions as the beginning of a lazy, little stream.

Many oasis springs are now drained by modern equipment; the Magic Spring illustrates exactly the process that has made Dakhla into a green spot with sand dunes on all sides. The water is supposed to be clean and good to drink.
