El-Dakhla oasis lies 187 km (116 miles) northwest to Al-Kharga
oasis and it is the farthest from Cairo,
albeit one of the most beautiful. This also lies in a natural
greenery depression in the Western desert.
The chief cities of the oasis are Mut ,
which is named after the famous ancient Egyptian goddess, and
El-Qasr
(see main image above).
The oasis has a sulphur pool that is said to be healthy in the
road between Mut and El-Qasr. El-Qasr town is simple and is
indeed exemplary of an Oasis town.
The oasis is renown for its production of olives, onions, dates
and dried fruits. |
