Qattara Depression: 15,000 sq km, mostly below sea level, with salt lakes and marshes.
Great Sand Sea: One of the world’s largest sand accumulations, with dunes over 110m high.
Gilf Kebir Plateau: A sandstone plateau as large as Switzerland, with cliffs, valleys, and hidden wadis.
The desert also holds six main oases Siwa, Bahariya, Fayoum, Farafra, Dakhla, and Kharga which are the only inhabited spots in this immense landscape.
