The Fayoum Waterwheels, also known as the Ptolemaic Waterwheels, are iconic landmarks in Fayoum Oasis. These ancient waterwheels were used to irrigate the agricultural lands of the region and are a testament to the ingenuity of ancient Egyptian engineering. Take a walk along the canals and marvel at the impressive structures. The waterwheels provide a picturesque backdrop for photography enthusiasts. Spring is a great time to visit as the surrounding fields are lush and green, creating a beautiful contrast against the desert backdrop.
