Wildest Middle East | Episode 5: Arabia - Land of Illusions | Free Documentary Nature

In this episode:
The Arabian peninsula is an ancient land of illusion. Extreme heat seems to sap life out of every corner. Yet, tricks of the light and the art of deception make survival possible. Nothing is as it seems.

From thick forests to remote deserts, along wild mountain ranges and into colourful seas - the Middle East has a spectacular, but virtually unfilmed, natural history. This is where east meets west; where forests meet deserts. This series visits vast and varied Turkey, Egypt, Turkmenistan and Jordan, from the howling deserts to the whispering forests.
