SIWA OASIS :
Cleopatra's Pool !
It sounds like an historical place, but there is no reason to believe
that Cleopatra had anything to do with it. The fine name indicates
however that this is one of Siwa's nicest pools.

Nowadays it is used by local men for bathing, but foreign female
visitors will not be denied entry. It was formerly used by local brides
for bathing, but that practice has now moved to the nearby Tamusi bath,
which is more secluded.
Cleopatra's Pool has a little cafe, sheltered from the sun and good for
hot days.
