Pyramids and oases in pictures and words
Egypt’s two Western Desert oases of Bahariya and Farafra offer visitors some of the most varied and beautiful scenery in the country—lush walled gardens of olives and palms fed by hot water springs, narrow, twisting alleys between mud-plastered houses in the old villages, and the extraordinary natural rock sculptures of the White Desert. The photographs in this book capture the amazing visual variety of the region, while the text describes the way of life there.
Farid Atiya is a writer, photographer and publisher. He is the author of many books on the Red Sea, Sinai and the monuments of Egypt.
Jenny Jobbins is a writer and a journalist. She has been travelling in Egypt since the late 1970s.
