  • Faiyum is the immense Egyptian Oasis and one of the Egyptian provinces. The governorate of El Faiyum has an agricultural nature. In Ancient Egypt, the crocodile god Sobek was the national deity. Its modern civilisation started during Mohammed Ali Pasha about 200 years ago, who directed many reforms to the infrastructure.
  • Wadi El Rayan is a unique nature protectorate in the western desert, about 42 meters under sea level. Plus, it consists of two lakes formed by waterfalls. In 1970, an overflow of drainage water from the farmlands in Faiyum created those waterfalls. Presently, the waterfalls paint a spectacular view! In general, these waterfalls are the only ones in Egypt.
