Trip to the North side of lake Quarun
Start from Tunis Village to the North side of lake Quarun, where you can see many different kind of birds in the immigration time.
First stop is at Qasr El Saga, which is translated as “Goldsmith’s Palace”. Qasr El Sagha was discovered by the archaeologist Schweinfurth in 1884. The temple is made of massive local limestones, most probably built in the Middle Kingdom.
Then we will visit Jebel Qatrani’s Open Air Museum and the “petrified forest”, where you can see preserved tree trunks, which are around 33 million years old. In the open air museum you can also see the skeleton of turtles, crocodiles, snakes etc.
On our way back we stop at Dimeh El Sebaa or Soknopaiou Nesos and Graeco-Roman-settlement. It’s located around 8 km south of Qasr El Sagha
