Al AQABA PASS, the only passage to the top of the plateau and further to the Libyan borders was the secret road taken by the German spies to cross from Libya to Egypt guided by 'Almazy' (The English Patient).

The cave of the swimmers was the place that witnessed the top of the romantic drama in the movie between Almazy and his beloved lady.

In addition, there are the glorious stories of the last generation of adventurous discoverers of this forgotten land in the last two centuries.
