The black desert is different from the natural yellow sand color in all deserts, so the color of the sand in the black desert is black, and the mountains of the black desert are differentiated by their black hilltops and different-colored stones.
The Black Desert
the black desert contains many unique geological forms that characterize this region, and it is one of the most important attractions that attract tourists, as approximately 70,000 tourists visit it annually.
The Black Mountains are associated with some historical events dating back to the British occupation of Egypt, such as the “English Mountain,” which was named after the concentration of English troops on it during the period of the British occupation of the oasis.
The mountain is characterized by its black summit because it contains basalt, a volcanic rock that indicates ancient volcanic activity in the area.
These stones vary in shape, height, size, composition, and even colors, with some being darker and others being redder.
Among the most famous mountains in the Black Desert region is Al-Marsous Mountain, which is a crater consisting of sandstone rocks covered with basalt cliffs that appear in the form of stacked columns, so the people of the Bahariya Oasis called it Al-Marsous Mountain, and its area is estimated at 2 km², and Panorama Mountain, where visitors to the Black Desert used to climb to it to take panoramic pictures of the Black Desert from the highest point.
Bahariya Oasis
Since ancient times, the ancient Egyptians have been interested in the Egyptian Bahariya Oases, and the Romans came after them due to the huge agricultural potential that provided decent livelihoods for them.
This region became a breadbasket for the pharaohs and Romans for long periods, and the biggest proof of this is the number of tombs, temples, and churches that have been discovered in the Bahariya Oases.
As for the most important tourist attractions available in the Bahariya Oasis, it is a vast flat plain and a densely cultivated area, especially the airport well area, which is a historical monument to a main well that represents a deep natural rocky break that reaches its water to agricultural areas 10 to 15 kilometers away through a group of Roman wells. It is a sandy plateau overlooking a group of vast crops in a valley surrounded by a group of high mountains and represents a panorama of the region, as well as a pharaonic funerary temple with two sources of water, one cold and the other hot, that meet in one path in a deep rocky cavity inside a mountain cave.
Dinosaur bones discovered in the Bahariya Oasis desert
Dinosaur bones were discovered in the Bahariya Oasis desert in the Western Desert, which was also reported by Egyptian newspapers, including Al-Ahram on its front page. After studying it, it turned out to be the largest dinosaur found so far, reaching a height of about 30 meters.
11 mummies discovered in Bahariya Oasis
This is the first time Egyptian excavators have found mummies with facial expressions, and the mummies discovered date back 1800 years.
