It is best to arrive here in the morning. The Fayom governorate has taken good care of it. There is nothing here to spend extra time. Nice place

Al Fayoum is famous for its more than 200 waterwheels, which have become a prominent symbol of the town and the oasis. These four rather rickety and unassumingly small examples are slap in the center of Medinat Al Fayoum. The Greeks invented the waterwheel, and the first depictions of them are seen in Ptolemaic Egyptian sources, so it’s quite likely that since Pharaonic times these devices have kept the town well irrigated despite its irregular topography of rolling hills and steep depressions. They are 4 to 5 Meters in Diameter and Coated with black tar to Protect the wood, Each waterwheel Can lift the water 3 meters, Spilling it onto higher ground, January is the Month set aside throughout Egypt for Cleaning the Canals, The sluices are closed in the Fayoum all the functioning waterwheels are Cleaned and repaired. In addition to the Four moaning and groaning in the Center of the City, The Famous seven, a hallmark of Fayoum of Fayoum are located in the Countryside along Bahr sinnuris, There are additional waterwheels on various Canals in the Area

Averroès Worldwide Review

Agréable vue et doté d'une salle de café avec un grand terrasse. Mais les prix sont exagérés. Devant la porte vous trouvez un homme avec un chariot et qui vous propose un tour. Attention à ce mec qui se prend pour un guide, ses prix sont extrêmement très très cher
