EGYPT: Cleopatra’s Pool
This tourist spot is located near several attractions that cater to ancient Egypt enthusiasts, including landmarks, exhibits, resorts and culture experiences. The pool, fed by a natural hot spring, is said to be where Cleopatra herself swam during a visit to Siwa, and tourists can follow in her footsteps to enjoy the experience of sunbathing or swimming. Cafes also offer light fare such as tea and local snacks, and souvenir shops at the site celebrate all that is the African ruler’s royal legacy and life.
