Full of history and culture, Dakhla Oasis is also probably the most fertile and cultivated of all the oases
Situated about 200 kilometres from Kharga, it is one of the more interesting oases with its Pharaonic, Roman and Coptic antiquities combined with exotic architecture, palm groves, hot springs and dunes.
A relative abundance of water has allowed farming to flourish and also makes Dakhla a surprisingly good spot for bird-watching. A highlight is exploring the still-inhabited old town with its twisting passages and alleyways, and its mud-brick walls.
