There is a white desert oasis known as the Bahariya Oasis in Egypt.
Egypt’s White Desert attracts tourists from across the globe due to its vast array of weird and unusual rock formations that may be seen in its white surroundings.
Location:
In the Western desert region, this location is situated just north of the town of Farafra and is readily accessible for all guided tours. There are several things to view in this area.
What you may expect:
You must go a great distance from the main highway to see the desert in its full grandeur.
Pavlova cakes, ice cream cones, and icing pools adorn the worn chalk mounds.
Snow-covered glaciers and peppermint-drop labyrinths are just some of the places one could find oneself.
Chalk erosion by wind and sand from the Great Sand Sea over millions of years has resulted in some beautiful structures in the White Desert near Farafra, Egypt.
Observe the Khoman chalk ridges, which were produced by marine species depositing their waste on the bed of a big ancient sea..
The ice-white bricks used across the Western Desert, from north to south, are made from a similar but whiter, chalky limestone. These bricks will last just a fraction of the time it took for the stone to be shaped and moulded.
The presence of harder limestone from the later Eocene era causes a pink crust to form on top of the chalk.
At dark and dawn, the dramatic theater left by an ancient ocean is at its most beautiful in the White Desert.
One of the most breathtaking deserts in the world, it’s impossible to miss the exquisite curves of this pale landscape, which looks to be covered with snow at times and an ice-cream shop at others.
