Nature's Prime ~ EAGLES Contest ~ HOME PAGE&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Sono uccelli di taglia medio-grande, con una lunghezza del corpo compresa tra i 55-58 cm dell'Aquila wahlbergi ai 110-115 dell'Aquila di mare testabianca, che vanta un'apertura alare di 3 m.&lt;br /&gt;
Il piumaggio varia dal bruno chiaro al nero.&lt;br /&gt;
Il gruppo delle Aquile è caratterizzato da particolare robustezza e prestanza fisica, becco potente ed uncinato, testa grande, ali grandi, tarsi generalmente ricoperti di piume sino al piede. Dispiegano volo potente, spesso veleggiato, maestoso; piombano sulle prede.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Aquila is the genus of true eagles. It is often united with the buteos, sea eagles and other more heavyset Accipitridae, but more recently it appears as if they are less distinct from the more slender accipitrine hawks than believed. Eagles are not a natural group but denote essentially any bird of prey large enough to hunt sizeable (about 50 cm long or more overall) vertebrate prey.&lt;br /&gt;

Fobello (in piemontese Fobél o Fobeli) è un comune di 246 abitanti della provincia di Vercelli. Si trova in Valsesia, collocato all'estremità di uno dei due rami della Val Mastallone.&lt;br /&gt;
Il nome significa faggio bello, a segnalare la presenza di ricchi boschi che circondano l'abitato.&lt;br /&gt;
A Fobello nacque Vincenzo Lancia, fondatore dell'omonima casa automobilistica. Si trasferisce poi a Varallo per affrontare gli studi e qui inizia a lavorare come meccanico, acquisendo quelle prime competenze e la passione che lo spingeranno a costruire una casa automobilistica.&lt;br /&gt;
Il vallone di Roj, nel territorio comunale di Fobello, fa parte del Parco naturale Alta Valsesia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fobello is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Vercelli in the Italian region Piedmont, located about 100 km northeast of Turin and about 70 km northwest of Vercelli. As of 31 December 2004, it had a population of 246 and an area of 29.3 km².[1]&lt;br /&gt;
Fobello borders the following municipalities: Bannio Anzino, Carcoforo, Cervatto, Cravagliana, Rimasco, Rimella, and Rossa.&lt;br /&gt;
The famous automotive engineers Vincenzo Lancia (1881-1937) and his son Gianni Lancia (1924-) were from Fobello.&lt;br /&gt;

Fobello (in piemontese Fobél o Fobeli) è un comune di 246 abitanti della provincia di Vercelli. Si trova in Valsesia, collocato all'estremità di uno dei due rami della Val Mastallone.&lt;br /&gt;
Il nome significa faggio bello, a segnalare la presenza di ricchi boschi che circondano l'abitato.&lt;br /&gt;
A Fobello nacque Vincenzo Lancia, fondatore dell'omonima casa automobilistica. Si trasferisce poi a Varallo per affrontare gli studi e qui inizia a lavorare come meccanico, acquisendo quelle prime competenze e la passione che lo spingeranno a costruire una casa automobilistica.&lt;br /&gt;
Il vallone di Roj, nel territorio comunale di Fobello, fa parte del Parco naturale Alta Valsesia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

Fobello borders the following municipalities: Bannio Anzino, Carcoforo, Cervatto, Cravagliana, Rimasco, Rimella, and Rossa.&lt;br /&gt;
The famous automotive engineers Vincenzo Lancia (1881-1937) and his son Gianni Lancia (1924-) were from Fobello.&lt;br /&gt;

Il Gruppo del Catinaccio, in tedesco Rosengarten e in ladino Ciadenac, è un massiccio delle Dolomiti situato tra la Valle di Tires, la Val d'Ega e la Val di Fassa nel Parco naturale dello Sciliar.&lt;br /&gt;
Domina, anche se distante una ventina di km, l'orizzonte orientale di Bolzano. Caratteristica del gruppo è la colorazione rosata che assume al tramonto, fenomeno visivo chiamato enrosadira.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Rosengarten (Italian: Catinaccio; German: Rosengarten) is a massif in the Dolomites of northern Italy. It is located between the Tiers, Eggental and Fassa Valleys, in Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol.&lt;br /&gt;
One peculiarity of the Rosengarten is the pink shade which, due to the presence of dolomite mineral, it takes in the sunset, celebrated in the Südtirollied as &amp;quot;glowing&amp;quot;. Meaning &amp;quot;Rose garden&amp;quot; in German, the name refers to the legend of King Laurin and his Rose Garden, a traditional story explaining the outer appearance of the mountain range.&lt;br /&gt;

Marsa Alam (o Marsà ‘Alam, in arabo مرسى علم) è stato fino a pochi anni fa un piccolo villaggio di pescatori situato in Egitto, sulla costa ovest del Mar Rosso.&lt;br /&gt;
Negli ultimi anni, a seguito dell'apertura dell'aeroporto internazionale (codice ICAO: HEMA, codice IATA: RMF) nel 2001, è cresciuto rapidamente fino a divenire una popolare destinazione turistica, come lo sono già Sharm el Sheikh e Hurghada.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam è situata in prossimità del Tropico del Cancro, dove il Mar Rosso incontra il deserto del Sahara, e si presenta ricca di palmeti e mangrovie, con un mare ricco di pesce per via della presenza della barriera corallina. Quest'ultima è molto rinomata tra i subacquei per via dei molti siti d'immersione ancora incontaminati, in cui si possono incontrare facilmente delfini (del genere stenella rostrata), dugongo e squali martello.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam (Arabic: مرسى علم‎) is a town in south-eastern Egypt, on the west coast of the Red Sea. It is currently seeing increasing popularity as a tourist destination and development including the opening of Marsa Alam Airport in 2001.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam is situated near the Tropic of Cancer where the Arabian Desert meets the Red Sea, and it has the appearance of a tropical paradise with its palm trees, mangroves and sea coasts fringed with barrier coral reefs. It has already gained a strong reputation amongst scuba divers due to its numerous and unspoilt diving sites both along the coast and offshore. Sightings of spinner dolphins, dugongs and hammerhead sharks are a frequent occurrence for those who venture into its waters.&lt;br /&gt;

Marsa Alam (o Marsà ‘Alam, in arabo مرسى علم) è stato fino a pochi anni fa un piccolo villaggio di pescatori situato in Egitto, sulla costa ovest del Mar Rosso.&lt;br /&gt;
Negli ultimi anni, a seguito dell'apertura dell'aeroporto internazionale (codice ICAO: HEMA, codice IATA: RMF) nel 2001, è cresciuto rapidamente fino a divenire una popolare destinazione turistica, come lo sono già Sharm el Sheikh e Hurghada.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam è situata in prossimità del Tropico del Cancro, dove il Mar Rosso incontra il deserto del Sahara, e si presenta ricca di palmeti e mangrovie, con un mare ricco di pesce per via della presenza della barriera corallina. Quest'ultima è molto rinomata tra i subacquei per via dei molti siti d'immersione ancora incontaminati, in cui si possono incontrare facilmente delfini (del genere stenella rostrata), dugongo e squali martello.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam (Arabic: مرسى علم‎) is a town in south-eastern Egypt, on the west coast of the Red Sea. It is currently seeing increasing popularity as a tourist destination and development including the opening of Marsa Alam Airport in 2001.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam is situated near the Tropic of Cancer where the Arabian Desert meets the Red Sea, and it has the appearance of a tropical paradise with its palm trees, mangroves and sea coasts fringed with barrier coral reefs. It has already gained a strong reputation amongst scuba divers due to its numerous and unspoilt diving sites both along the coast and offshore. Sightings of spinner dolphins, dugongs and hammerhead sharks are a frequent occurrence for those who venture into its waters.&lt;br /&gt;

CAPRA&lt;br /&gt;
La capra domestica (Capra hircus, o, per alcuni autori, Capra aegagrus hircus) è il discendente addomesticato dell'egagro dell'Asia Minore e dell'Est europeo.&lt;br /&gt;

Domestic Goat&lt;br /&gt;
The domestic goat (Capra aegagrus hircus) is a subspecies of goat domesticated from the wild goat of southwest Asia and Eastern Europe. The goat is a member of the Bovidae family and is closely related to the sheep: both are in the goat-antelope subfamily Caprinae. There are over three hundred distinct breeds of goats.[1]&lt;br /&gt;
Goats are one of the oldest domesticated species. For thousands of years, goats have been used for their milk, meat, hair, and skins over much of the world.[2] In the twentieth century they also gained in popularity as pets.[3]&lt;br /&gt;
Female goats are referred to as does or nannies, intact males as bucks or billies; their offspring are kids. Castrated males are wethers. Goat meat from younger animals is called kid or cabrito, and from older animals is sometimes called chevon, or in some areas “mutton”.&lt;br /&gt;

Apis è un genere di insetti sociali della famiglia delle Apidae. Due delle specie comprese nel genere possono essere allevate dall'uomo ovvero Apis mellifera e Apis cerana.&lt;br /&gt;
L'Apis mellifera, diffusa in tutti i continenti ad esclusione delle zone artiche ed antartiche, è l'unica conosciuta in Europa. L'Apis dorsata risiede in particolar modo in India e nel Sud-Est asiatico, non è una specie domestica, ha la particolarità di costruire il favo aperto ed è di dimensioni ragguardevoli, tanto da meritarsi il nome di ape gigante dell'India. Nelle stesse zone prolifera l'Apis cerana , di dimensioni però più contenute, che ha il suo habitat in Medio ed Estremo Oriente, in particolare in Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Siberia, Cina e Giappone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Honey bees (or honeybees) are a subset of bees, primarily distinguished by the production and storage of honey and the construction of perennial, colonial nests out of wax. Honey bees are the only extant members of the tribe Apini, all in the genus Apis. Currently, there are only seven recognized species of honey bee with a total of 44 subspecies (Engel, 1999) though historically, anywhere from six to eleven species have been recognized. Honey bees represent only a small fraction of the approximately 20,000 known species of bees. Some other types of related bees produce and store honey, but only members of the genus Apis are true honey bees.&lt;br /&gt;

Le iguane sono rettili affini alle lucertole, ma più grossi e relativamente più lenti. Allo stato adulto possiedono una caratteristica cresta sul dorso, molto più evidente nei maschi che nelle femmine. Anche la testa presenta un accentuato dimorfismo sessuale: le femmine hanno una testa arrotondata, i maschi triangolare. In natura possono raggiungere anche i 2,5 m, mentre in cattività crescono fino ai 1,5 - 1,8 m, anche esemplari di tali dimensioni sono ormai rari a causa della distruzione dell'ambiente che in molte zone provoca sovrappopolazione e conseguente riduzione delle dimensioni, l'industria degli animali da compagnia e il fatto che molti centro e sudamericani la considerano una leccornia.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Iguana is a genus of lizard native to tropical areas of Central and South America and the Caribbean.(A few species of iguanas like the Fiji Banded Iguana are however found outside the New World). The genus was first described by Austrian naturalist Josephus Nicolaus Laurenti in his book Specimen Medicum, Exhibens Synopsin Reptilium Emendatam cum Experimentis circa Venena in 1768. The genus Iguana includes two species: the green iguana (a popular pet) and the lesser Antillean iguana.&lt;br /&gt;
The word &amp;quot;Iguana&amp;quot; is derived from a Spanish form of the original Taino name for the species &amp;quot;Iwana&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

L'ippopotamo (Hippopotamus amphibius), dal greco ‘ιπποπόταμος (&amp;quot;cavallo di fiume&amp;quot;) è un grosso mammifero erbivoro africano. È una delle due specie ancora viventi della famiglia Hippopotamidae (altre due si sono estinte in tempi recenti).&lt;br /&gt;
Si è a lungo ritenuto che la famiglia degli ippopotami avesse origine dallo stesso ceppo da cui derivano, da un lato, i suidi (maiali, cinghiali ecc.) e, dall'altro, i ruminanti (per esempio, cervidi e bovidi).&lt;br /&gt;
Gli studi più recenti sulle origini degli ippopotamidi suggeriscono che ippopotami e cetacei condividano un antenato comune semi-acquatico che si sarebbe differenziato dagli altri Artiodattili circa 60 milioni di anni fa [1][2], per poi dar vita, circa 54 milioni di anni fa, a due branche distinte , da una delle quali si evolsero i cetacei, probabilmente a partire dalla proto-balena Pakicetus e da altri Archaeoceti&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius) or hippo (Greek: ἱπποπόταμος, hippopotamos, from ἵππος, hippos, &amp;quot;horse&amp;quot;, and ποταμός, potamos, &amp;quot;river&amp;quot;) is a large, mostly plant-eating mammal in sub-Saharan Africa, and one of only two extant species in the family Hippopotamidae (the other is the Pygmy Hippopotamus). The hippopotamus is the heaviest extant artiodactyl, despite being considerably shorter than the giraffe.&lt;br /&gt;
The hippopotamus is semi-aquatic, inhabiting rivers and lakes where territorial bulls preside over a stretch of river and groups of 5 to 30 females and young. During the day they remain cool by staying in the water or mud; reproduction and childbirth both occur in water. They emerge at dusk to graze on grass. While hippopotamuses rest near each other in the water, grazing is a solitary activity and hippos are not territorial on land.&lt;br /&gt;

The Indian Peafowl or Blue Peafowl (Pavo cristatus) is a large and brightly coloured pheasant native to South Asia, but introduced and semi-feral in many other parts of the world. The male, peacock, is predominantly blue with a fan-like crest of spatula-tipped wire-like feathers and is best known for the long train made up of elongated upper-tail covert feathers which bear colourful eyespots. These stiff and elongated feathers are raised into a fan and quivered in a display during courtship. The female lacks the train, has a greenish lower neck and has a duller brown plumage. They are found mainly on the ground in open forest or cultivation where they forage for berries, grains but will also prey on snakes, lizards, and small rodents. Their loud calls make them easy to detect, and in forest areas, often indicate the presence of a predator such as a tiger. They forage on the ground, moving in small groups and will usually try to escape on foot through undergrowth and avoid flying. They will fly up into tall trees to roost, however. It is the national bird of India.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A melanistic form with black wings, initially considered as a subspecies P. c. nigripennis, also known as a Japanned Peafowl was a topic of some interest during Darwin's time.[4] It is however only a case of genetic variation within the population. Other variations include the pied and white forms all of which are the result of allelic variation at specific loci&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Il Pavone comune o Pavone blu (Pavo cristatus, Linnaeus 1758) è un uccello appartenente alla famiglia dei Fasianidi. Originario delle foreste dell' India, è stato importato in Europa dai Romani, i quali lo allevavano non solo per la sua bellezza, ma anche per la prelibatezza delle sue carni.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nel corso degli anni sono state selezionate numerose varietà d'allevamento. La più famosa è sicuramente la varietà Bianca, in cui la coda del maschio somiglia ad uno splendido pizzo. Punto debole di questa varietà è l'eccessiva consanguineità, che la rende sensibile alle malattie e al clima instabile.&lt;br /&gt;
Altra razza degna di nota è l'Arlecchino, che presenta una livrea simile al Pavone comune ma intervallata da chiazze bianche di varie dimensioni e su tutto il corpo; questa razza è stata ottenuta incrociando la varietà Bianca con il meno noto Pavone dalle ali nere&lt;br /&gt;

Il Museo delle Antichità Egizie di Torino, meglio conosciuto semplicemente come Museo egizio, è considerato, per il valore dei reperti, il più importante del mondo dopo quello del Cairo, nonché il più importante d'Italia seguito da quello di Firenze[1].&lt;br /&gt;
Ha sede nello storico Palazzo dell'Accademia delle Scienze, sede dell'omonima Accademia e che ospita anche la Galleria Sabauda, eretto nel XVII secolo dall'architetto Guarino Guarini.&lt;br /&gt;
Nel 2006 è stato visitato da 554.911 persone, con un aumento del 93,8% rispetto al 2005[2].&lt;br /&gt;
Il museo è stato fondato nel 1824 da Carlo Felice, che acquistò la Collezione Drovetti, composta dai ritrovamenti di Bernardino Drovetti, console francese in Egitto. Fu in seguito ampliato con i reperti provenienti dagli scavi di Ernesto Schiaparelli proveniente da Barbania.&lt;br /&gt;
Nel museo sono presenti circa 30mila pezzi che coprono il periodo dal paleolitico all'epoca copta. I più importanti sono:&lt;br /&gt;
la tomba intatta di Kha e Merit&lt;br /&gt;
il tempio rupestre di Ellesija&lt;br /&gt;
il Canone Reale, conosciuto come Papiro di Torino, una delle più importanti fonti sulla sequenza dei sovrani egizi&lt;br /&gt;
la Mensa isiaca, che i Savoia ottengono dai Gonzaga nel XVII secolo&lt;br /&gt;
la tela dipinta di Gebelein&lt;br /&gt;
i rilievi di Djoser&lt;br /&gt;
le statue delle dee Iside e Sekhmet e quella di Ramesse II scoperte da Vitaliano Donati nel tempio della dea Mut a Karnak&lt;br /&gt;
il Papiro delle miniere d'oro&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museo Egizio is a museum in Turin, Italy, specialising in Egyptian archaelogy and anthropology. It houses the world's largest and most comprehensive collection of Egyptian antiquities outside the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.[citation needed] In 2006 it received 554,911 visitors.[1]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
È il terzo lago italiano come superficie con 145 km² e il primo per sviluppo perimetrale con 170 km.&lt;br /&gt;
È il quinto bacino più profondo d'Europa con i suoi 410 metri dopo 4 laghi norvegesi: Hornindalsvatnet, Mjøsa, Salsvatn e Tinnsjå.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Raggiunge una lunghezza di 46 km (Gera Lario - Como) ed è largo da 650 metri a 4,3 km.&lt;br /&gt;
Bifido fiordo interamente scavato nella cerchia delle prealpi lombarde, con una caratteristica forma a &amp;quot;Y&amp;quot; rovesciata o, come recita un diffuso detto locale, a forma di uomo [1], è uno dei più suggestivi paesaggi italiani, decantato nell'800 dai maggiori poeti del Romanticismo, da Alessandro Manzoni a Stendhal, da George Gordon Byron a Franz Liszt.&lt;br /&gt;
Si trova a 199 m slm. La morfologia del territorio varia dai pendii arrotondati ed erbosi alle dolomie con rocce dentate, guglie e torri. I depositi alluvionali, trasportati da fiumi e torrenti, iniziarono a formarsi con la postglaciazione e furono la causa della separazione dei laghi minori (il Lago di Mezzola a nord ed i laghi di Garlate e di Olginate a sud).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Il bacino è composto da tre parti differenti: a sud-ovest il ramo di Como, a sud-est il ramo di Lecco e a nord il ramo di Colico (o &amp;quot;alto lago&amp;quot;), il più aperto dei tre. I fiordi meridionali rinserrano il montagnoso Triangolo Lariano. La divisione dei tre rami è ben visibile dal Sasso di San Martino, sopra Griante.&lt;br /&gt;

Lake Como (Lago di Como in Italian, also known as Lario; Lach de Comm in Insubric; Latin: Larius Lacus) is a lake of glacial origin in Lombardy, Italy. It has an area of 146 km², making it the third largest lake in Italy, after Lake Garda and Lake Maggiore. At over 400 m (1320 ft) deep it is one of the deepest lakes in Europe and the bottom of the lake is more than 200 metres (656 ft) below sea-level.&lt;br /&gt;

Marsa Alam (o Marsà ‘Alam, in arabo مرسى علم) è stato fino a pochi anni fa un piccolo villaggio di pescatori situato in Egitto, sulla costa ovest del Mar Rosso.&lt;br /&gt;
Negli ultimi anni, a seguito dell'apertura dell'aeroporto internazionale (codice ICAO: HEMA, codice IATA: RMF) nel 2001, è cresciuto rapidamente fino a divenire una popolare destinazione turistica, come lo sono già Sharm el Sheikh e Hurghada.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam è situata in prossimità del Tropico del Cancro, dove il Mar Rosso incontra il deserto del Sahara, e si presenta ricca di palmeti e mangrovie, con un mare ricco di pesce per via della presenza della barriera corallina. Quest'ultima è molto rinomata tra i subacquei per via dei molti siti d'immersione ancora incontaminati, in cui si possono incontrare facilmente delfini (del genere stenella rostrata), dugongo e squali martello.&lt;br /&gt;

Marsa Alam (Arabic: مرسى علم‎) is a town in south-eastern Egypt, on the west coast of the Red Sea. It is currently seeing increasing popularity as a tourist destination and development including the opening of Marsa Alam Airport in 2001.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam is situated near the Tropic of Cancer where the Arabian Desert meets the Red Sea, and it has the appearance of a tropical paradise with its palm trees, mangroves and sea coasts fringed with barrier coral reefs. It has already gained a strong reputation amongst scuba divers due to its numerous and unspoilt diving sites both along the coast and offshore. Sightings of spinner dolphins, dugongs and hammerhead sharks are a frequent occurrence for those who venture into its waters.&lt;br /&gt;

Marsa Alam (o Marsà ‘Alam, in arabo مرسى علم) è stato fino a pochi anni fa un piccolo villaggio di pescatori situato in Egitto, sulla costa ovest del Mar Rosso.&lt;br /&gt;
Negli ultimi anni, a seguito dell'apertura dell'aeroporto internazionale (codice ICAO: HEMA, codice IATA: RMF) nel 2001, è cresciuto rapidamente fino a divenire una popolare destinazione turistica, come lo sono già Sharm el Sheikh e Hurghada.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam è situata in prossimità del Tropico del Cancro, dove il Mar Rosso incontra il deserto del Sahara, e si presenta ricca di palmeti e mangrovie, con un mare ricco di pesce per via della presenza della barriera corallina. Quest'ultima è molto rinomata tra i subacquei per via dei molti siti d'immersione ancora incontaminati, in cui si possono incontrare facilmente delfini (del genere stenella rostrata), dugongo e squali martello.&lt;br /&gt;

Marsa Alam (Arabic: مرسى علم‎) is a town in south-eastern Egypt, on the west coast of the Red Sea. It is currently seeing increasing popularity as a tourist destination and development including the opening of Marsa Alam Airport in 2001.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam is situated near the Tropic of Cancer where the Arabian Desert meets the Red Sea, and it has the appearance of a tropical paradise with its palm trees, mangroves and sea coasts fringed with barrier coral reefs. It has already gained a strong reputation amongst scuba divers due to its numerous and unspoilt diving sites both along the coast and offshore. Sightings of spinner dolphins, dugongs and hammerhead sharks are a frequent occurrence for those who venture into its waters.&lt;br /&gt;

Marsa Alam (o Marsà ‘Alam, in arabo مرسى علم) è stato fino a pochi anni fa un piccolo villaggio di pescatori situato in Egitto, sulla costa ovest del Mar Rosso.&lt;br /&gt;
Negli ultimi anni, a seguito dell'apertura dell'aeroporto internazionale (codice ICAO: HEMA, codice IATA: RMF) nel 2001, è cresciuto rapidamente fino a divenire una popolare destinazione turistica, come lo sono già Sharm el Sheikh e Hurghada.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam è situata in prossimità del Tropico del Cancro, dove il Mar Rosso incontra il deserto del Sahara, e si presenta ricca di palmeti e mangrovie, con un mare ricco di pesce per via della presenza della barriera corallina. Quest'ultima è molto rinomata tra i subacquei per via dei molti siti d'immersione ancora incontaminati, in cui si possono incontrare facilmente delfini (del genere stenella rostrata), dugongo e squali martello.&lt;br /&gt;

Marsa Alam (Arabic: مرسى علم‎) is a town in south-eastern Egypt, on the west coast of the Red Sea. It is currently seeing increasing popularity as a tourist destination and development including the opening of Marsa Alam Airport in 2001.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam is situated near the Tropic of Cancer where the Arabian Desert meets the Red Sea, and it has the appearance of a tropical paradise with its palm trees, mangroves and sea coasts fringed with barrier coral reefs. It has already gained a strong reputation amongst scuba divers due to its numerous and unspoilt diving sites both along the coast and offshore. Sightings of spinner dolphins, dugongs and hammerhead sharks are a frequent occurrence for those who venture into its waters.&lt;br /&gt;

Marsa Alam (o Marsà ‘Alam, in arabo مرسى علم) è stato fino a pochi anni fa un piccolo villaggio di pescatori situato in Egitto, sulla costa ovest del Mar Rosso.&lt;br /&gt;
Negli ultimi anni, a seguito dell'apertura dell'aeroporto internazionale (codice ICAO: HEMA, codice IATA: RMF) nel 2001, è cresciuto rapidamente fino a divenire una popolare destinazione turistica, come lo sono già Sharm el Sheikh e Hurghada.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam è situata in prossimità del Tropico del Cancro, dove il Mar Rosso incontra il deserto del Sahara, e si presenta ricca di palmeti e mangrovie, con un mare ricco di pesce per via della presenza della barriera corallina. Quest'ultima è molto rinomata tra i subacquei per via dei molti siti d'immersione ancora incontaminati, in cui si possono incontrare facilmente delfini (del genere stenella rostrata), dugongo e squali martello.&lt;br /&gt;

Marsa Alam (Arabic: مرسى علم‎) is a town in south-eastern Egypt, on the west coast of the Red Sea. It is currently seeing increasing popularity as a tourist destination and development including the opening of Marsa Alam Airport in 2001.&lt;br /&gt;
Marsa Alam is situated near the Tropic of Cancer where the Arabian Desert meets the Red Sea, and it has the appearance of a tropical paradise with its palm trees, mangroves and sea coasts fringed with barrier coral reefs. It has already gained a strong reputation amongst scuba divers due to its numerous and unspoilt diving sites both along the coast and offshore. Sightings of spinner dolphins, dugongs and hammerhead sharks are a frequent occurrence for those who venture into its waters.&lt;br /&gt;
