    I've wanted to visit Siwa since I first visited Egypt in 2009. I had no idea what it was like, never saw any pictures or videos before but it sounded interesting and mystical. It actually looks way more fascinating than I'd imagined. It reminds me a bit of Jaisalmer, India.

    • @JasonBillamTravel
      @JasonBillamTravel  3 года назад +16

      I also didn’t quite know what to expect, as you mentioned there’s so little coverage of it. But you’re right, it has a similar vibe to Jaisalmer. Totally worth the effort of the long journey.

    Ancient moroccan piligrims used to say in darija : " Khatoua khatoua, men Deroua li Sioua" ( litteraly : "step by step, walk from Deroua to Sioua") considering that the amazigh lands (berber territory) starts at Deroua ( a place on the atlantic ocean coast near Casablanca) and ending at Sioua ( in ouest Egypt) which is the uttermost border. So, don't be surprised to find amazigh culture among sioua people.
    Thanks for sharing.
