Lawrence Of Arabia Memorial Camp

After our short walk through the Valley of the Moon or Lawrence of Arabia Pass, Michael and I met up with our tour guide at the Lawrence of Arabia Memorial Camp in Barrah Siq.

This is the location where Prince Abdullah and TE Lawrence first met in the early 1900s during the Arab revolt against Ottoman rule.

The camp was not quite like this scene from the movie Lawrence of Arabia!

Arab Hospitality

Once inside the camp, our guide gave us Arabic tea. We laughed and had some fun.

This camp is more of rest stop/souvenir shop for both the guides and tour groups.

A place where guides smoke, sip tea and talk with each other in Arabic while tourists enjoy Arab hospitality then deciding if they want to buy a souvenir.

Other tour groups started to arrive at the camp.

I was grateful our guide didn’t pressure us to buy souvenirs (that were plenty in the camp) like the other guides did.

Carvings Of TE Lawrence & Prince Abdullah

What I have read on the internet about Prince Abdullah was he and TE Lawrence did not have a good relationship. It was Abdullah’s brother, Faisal whom TE Lawrence connected with.  

---

Parking Lot

Within our arrival time, the camp started to get busy.

---

---

Drive Back To Camp

Our drive back to our camp wasn’t a back track from where we came, but a well-timed drive to where we started, finishing the tour at exactly 1.5 hours later.

Pictures on the way back to camp.

Mazayen Rum Camp

We arrived back at camp. Here we would rest in our Bedouin style camp before dinner.
