  1. Handicraft Workshop

    The former British military hospital in south Azraq has recently been renovated by the Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature (RSCN) as a base from which to explore the Eastern Desert. It’s a nostalgic lodge with a 1940s colonial feel. The lodge is also home to a small handicraftworkshop where women from the local community sell silk screens, ostrich-egg carvings and traditional textiles.
