Frequently Asked Questions
What is the White Desert in Egypt?
The White Desert of Egypt is a protected National Park that extends over an area of about 300 km² in what thousands of years ago was an inland sea. Its most fascinating feature and the one that gives it its name is its white color.
What is the Egyptian Pyramid Desert called?
The pyramids rise above the sand of the Sahara Desert. Waking up with the burning sun on my face and straining to open my eyes I glanced across the rusty Sahara desert to see if anyone was excited.
What is the largest desert in Egypt called?
When the Sahara was a great green pasture: why did it dry up and ... The haze that has covered our cities with dust and clay these past few days has made us realize that the world's largest desert, the Sahara, is not as far away as we thought.
