Valley of Whales in the Middle of Egypt
There’s a Valley of Whales in the Middle of Egypt’s Desert and its Millions of Years old
The site is called Wadi El Hitan, dubbed the Valley of Whales, located around 160 kilometers from the famous pyramids at Giza.
There is an ancient Egyptian desert, once a vast ocean, that guards the secret of one of the most remarkable transformations in the evolution of life on planet Earth.
Some 160 kilometers southwest of the Pyramids at the Giza plateau is a treasure trove of history. There aren’t any pyramids, temples or mummies buried there, but it is nonetheless a site of great importance. In fact, Wadi El Hitan was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2005.
