Here Is Another Place,

that is on our 'wish list' of places to visit,


photographs Showmeegypt, Siwa Oasis, one of Egypt’s most remote settlements, is also a popular tourist destination thanks in no small part to the stunningly beautiful salt pools with their azure water that people can float in, the stunning salt pools found in Siwa Oasis are beautiful to look at, but tourists wanting to bathe in them should take special care not to scratch themselves on the sharp salt crystals that basically make up the bottom and the edges of these pools. Bringing rubber slippers is also a good idea, as the salt can pretty much destroy regular footwear,


while Instagram pics of the salt pools have really put Siwa Oasis on  the travel map, apparently it is really worth visiting both for its unique culture and its history. Located in the Qattara depression which spans the north west of Egypt, Siwa was once famous as the home of the Oracle of Amun, whom Alexander the Great visited during his campaign to conquer the Persian empire, the ruin’s of the oracle’s temple can still be visited, well that is us sorted, a trip down the Nile by boat and a side trip to the Siwa Oasis.
