Embark on a fascinating journey to the historic Camel Market of Birqash, Egypt’s hidden gem. Witness a unique spectacle of hundreds of camels and immerse yourself in the vibrant local traditions and culture.
- Camel market - The optimal time for a visit is on Friday, when the marketplace is at its most vibrant during the early morning hours, specifically from 7am to 9am. Although the market remains open until 1pm, the bulk of the transactions are completed by 11am.\n\nThis bazaar was originally located in Imbaba, but due to the city’s growth, it was relocated to the Birqash suburb, which lies on the fringe of the Western Desert.\n\nEvery day, countless camels are traded here. However, it is not an ideal spot for those who are passionate about animal welfare. While the camels are not in a deplorable state, their treatment leaves a lot to be desired.
