Bahariya Set in a depression covering over 2000 sq. Km. Bahariya Oasis is surrounded by black hills made up of ferruginous quartzite and dolorite. Most of the villages and cultivated land can be viewed from the top of the 50-metre-high Jebel al-Mi'ysrah, together with the massive dunes which threaten to engulf some of the older settlements. Wildlife is plentiful, especially birds such as wheatears; crops(which only cover a small percentage of the total area) include dates, olives, apricots, rice and corn.
