نُصُب سمير لمعي التذكارية

Scattered across Egypt's Western Desert are simple monuments honouring Samir Lama, the beloved Egyptian actor who was also a passionate desert explorer and adventurer, and who died on one of his expeditions into the Sahara. The memorials mark places tied to his journeys into this vast, empty wilderness.

Reaching them means venturing deep into the desert, where the landscape itself is the draw: immense dunes, silence and horizons unbroken for miles. The monuments are a poignant tribute to a man who loved these sands enough to spend his life among them.

They suit intrepid travellers on a 4x4 safari through Egypt's Western Desert, adding a human story to an otherwise elemental landscape.
