Proceeding to Barka you will see the Oasis of Nakhl, visit the 17th Century Fort and enjoy the invigorating waters of Al Thowarah Hot Springs.

EXCELLENT FOOT MASSAGE

Because of its growing popularity, there was some renovation taking place on the pathway to the springs making it quite challenging to walk to the stream. However once there, and you soak your feet in the warm water where the many small harmless fishes begin to nibble at the dead skin on your feet it's absolute bliss. You get a tickling, tingling feeling while they are doing so and it's a superb feeling. In the end, your feet feel great. I would definitely recommend this place as although I have gone through many foot massages by various people, this is definitely the best "foot massage "I have ever had and that too by tiny fishes. Ps. The water in the very shallow stream was so noticeably clean and clear that you could see its bed at the bottom very clearly

Walk into the wadi pass the central area and you will have a fantastic experience!

This place can be either great or disappointing..... If you want to enjoy the "central area" of the hot springs, I recommend going early in the morning, otherwise it gets very crowded as it is a popular picnic spot for the locals. Also, at the time of my visit, there was a substantial and extremely noisy construction activity. While this will probably result in huge future improvements, for now, it can be rather bothersome. The main area is also quite polluted with trash. But - if you want to have a great experience I recommend walking deeper into the wadi. What a beautiful time I had! I found several beautiful and crystal clean pools where I was completely alone, soaking in hot water and enjoying the views. Also, if you will walk even farther pass the pools, you can enjoy the still quietness of the wadi with nothing but the sounds of birds and wind, and have uninterrupted time just lying on one of the huge flat boulders and staring at the blue sky.
