Top 15 things to do in Siwa
1. Great Sand Sea
©
See the wonders of the seemingly endless sand with a guided tour of Great Sand Sea. The 7.2 hectare (18 acre) stretch of dunes creates the feeling of waves when you ride across them. You can also see several hot and cold springs in the middle of the desert, as well as a salt lake. If you're feeling adventurous, try out the sandboarding.
Suggested duration:
3 hours

2. Shali Fortress
©
See the enigmatic ruins of Shali Fortress, which once towered above the oasis. Dating back to the 13th century, the fortress was built from "kershef"--a mixture of salt, mud, and rocks. It wasn't meant to last more than a few decades, but it was destroyed by a heavy rainfall in 1926. Today, it is largely abandoned apart from some buildings near the edges, which are mostly used for storage. Walk through the labyrinth of impressive organic shapes, which once used to rise up to 60 m (197 ft) in height. Follow the path that spans the remnants of this ghost town, past the ancient mosque to the top, which offers scenic views.
