Dakhla |
| 190
Km west of Kharga. With
hundreds of springs set in a
lush, verdant landscape, Dakhla
is regarded as
the prettiest of the
oases. A long band
of pinkish rock sits
along the northern horizon, and olives,
dates, wheat and
rice thrive on the fertile
farmland. The
capital, Mut,
has an
Ethnographic Museum
displaying figures
sculpted by a local artist, Mabrouk.
Dakhla’s ancient sites
are situated in the outlying parts of
the oasis. They can easily be reached
by hiring a pick-up truck from Mut. |
