GARDENS - Created as a small wildlife paradise, our unique garden is a guide through Egyptian wild flora, where almost every plant has been used in traditional medicine & has economic value supporting the life of the local nomads inhabiting the Egyptian deserts. The garden was created in 2017 in cooperation with Dr. Irina Springuel, a former professor at the Aswan University, who resides most of the year at Wadi Sabarah. She will be happy to guide you through more than 2000 plants with over 40 local species.
