The Necropolis of Al-Bagawat One of the World's Oldest Christian Cemetary.
Western Desert/Kharga Oasis/The Necropolis of Al-Bagawat
The
Necropolis of Al-Bagawat is one of the oldest Christian cemeteries in
the
world. While most of the tombs are unadorned mud-brick crypts, a few have
well
preserved biblical scenes etched on the walls.
On site guides are
more
than willing to take you to see paintings of Moses, Jesus and Abraham
and
other colorful tombs for a tip.
