After breakfast, we'll head to your hotel to relax before heading out for lunch. One of the pleasures of your Siwa oasis excursion to the wide sand sea is walking on the dunes in your bare feet while admiring a spectacular desert sunset. When you arrive, savour a barbecue meal, grilled meats, crisp salads, delectable Siwian food, coffee, and dates in a camp designed in the Bedouin manner.
The Mountain of the Dead, also known as Gabal Elmwata, is a tiny hill at the northernmost part of Siwa Town that is covered in breathtaking wall paintings and honeycombed with rock graves. Gebel al-Mawta, also referred to as the "Mountain of the Dead," is where it is located. Along with the Ptolemaic and Roman eras, the 26th dynasty was responsible for the majority of the tomb construction in this region. The Siwans took sanctuary in these tombs when the Italians assaulted the oasis in World War II.
Next, travel to The Stronghold of Shali, a mud-brick fortification built in the 13th century that once housed the Siwa people. Due to their construction from salt, mud, rock, and plaster, even though some of the historic town's structures are still in use, they deteriorate much more quickly each year.
The Oracle Temple also called the Aghurmi or Amun Ra Temple, will be our next destination. Alexander the Great made his first expedition into Egypt and then went to the Greek-built temple. (Temple of Amun Ra).
We'll go to Fatnas Lake someday. Bicycles and on foot are two ways to get to Birket Siwa's tiny island of Fatnas. In the west, Gebel Bayda and Hamra provide a lovely backdrop, making it a great place to unwind and watch the sun set across the lake. While strolling through the garden, you may see, among other sorts of trees, banana, date, and olive trees. Following that, you will be taken to your lodging.
