'This is a video with beautiful photos of salt extraction from the Siwa salt lakes. It\'s a breathtaking landscape of deep blue and white salt lakes surrounded by golden dunes and big limestone mountains situated in a huge saline depression in the desert. The salt has been used for hundreds of years for building Siwan houses with kerchief (mix from sand, salt and clay). The salt today still is used as building material for traditional houses (and some eco hotels), as well as for furniture, for creation of salt lamps, for spicing and food conservation and for wellness treatments in floating tanks. The pictures here show the salt extraction for the floating tanks and wellness, they are not about the salt mining. This will be another story. It is also exported to Italy and elsewhere in big blocks. The oasis of Siwa is surrounded by three huge salt lakes, that are supplied with freshwater from underground springs. These springs supply water that is believed to have been underground for 30,000 to 50,000 years.The lakes and the marshland around them are also well known as bird watching paradises. If you love Egypt, read more on http://www.tripaporter.com. This was former the web address egyptdelights as it is still written in the video, but the domain has changed. I am the owner of this film!'
