Oasis in the Western Desert

by wwroam - last update: Mar 15, 2006

A mornings drive South of Marsa Matruh lies the western Oasis of Siwa. Fed by freshwater springs, date palms and olive trees flourish amid some stunning lakeside and desert scenery.Because of its isolation from the rest of Egypt, Siwans have their own culture and language, Siwi.
