FORGOTTEN OASIS :
The
Forgotten oasis
The spring of Ain Dalla,
The spring of Ain Dalla,
It is 10km northeast of Table Mountain. A military intelligence post for
smuggling surveillance, the spring is little more than a hole in the
ground surrounded by shrubs and palm trees, with two concrete blocks in
the vicinity. The importance of the spot is rather in its strategic
position 200km from each of Siwa, Bahariya and Farafra, which made it a
regular stop on smuggling routes from ancient times to the present. With
the Sand Sea to the east and the White Desert to the west, Ain Dalla
must have saved countless lives through history.

"El Ark" Al Aarg

A small- uninhabited oasis. Where you find cliffs where some ancient
tombs were carved into the rock. some of the tombs were still occupied,
