There is a very famous story about this and i am going to tell you about it which is the main reason for the tourists to visit.
Saif-ul-malook was an Egyptian prince who fell in love with a fairy named "Badi-u-Jamal". He saw her in his dreams and after waking up, the prince always set out in search of his beloved fairy Badi-u-Jamal. Until he met a Saint, he was clueless regarding his journey. The Saint told him how and from where he could find the fairy. He informed him about the difficulties which he would face before he could find and marry Badi-u-Jamal, because she was a fairy and the prince himself was a human being.

Start of journey:

Hence the prince started the journey in the love of a fairy, but after facing many challenges and with his courage and valiance, his journey turns into the spiritual explorations.
The prince was very rich. He never prayed or asked for anything his life. He thought that he can buy everything with money but when he saw the dream of the fairy, he realised that he was wrong. The fairy had changed the whole course of his life and his peace of mind was stolen by her.

Finally he Got a clue:

Atlast he reached a lake which was surrounded by sky-high mountains. He had never seen that lake before. There he saw some fairies. Beauty of all the fairies outmatched to one another but the glamour of the seventh one surpassed the charm of the rest with her black hair. Her face was as glooming as the full moon (badr). It was her laughter that seized the heart of the prince, even on waking up it still rang sweetly in his ears. He did never see such a spell-bounding dream in his whole life. All the fairies disappeared but the king did not lose hope and continued his search for his dream fairy.

Strugle and determination:

He went out in search of fairy and kept on wandering to and fro. One day while he was in the outskirts of the Cairo city, the prince happened to meet a Saint who was sitting under a shady tree. He thought the Saint might help him. As soon as he approached him, the old man looked at him expectantly and a smile lit up his face. He informed the prince that he was waiting for him. He narrated the story of the prince and revealed his predictions of the coming life of the prince. He warned the prince of the obstacles and the dangers in the way towards Badi-u-Jamal but the prince didnot turn back and asked for the path. He guided Saif-ul-Malook about the direction to access the fairy.

Hardwork paysoff:

The prince reached at the Lake which is now known aslake Saif-ul-Malook after intense hardships and barriers. His courage and determination didnot let him lose hope. Atlast he saw his beloved, Badi-u-Jamal in the emerald-green water of the lake. There she entered the Lake with her long black hair spread over her back, her face was as radiant as the full moon and her eyes were twinkling. Prince Saif-ul-Malook felt himself in the heavens after undaunted and tiring struggle for consecutive six years and forty days. He was right there to see the palpable fairy, whom he could touch, feel and to live with!

Nowadays story:

Now people say that the fairies still visit the lake at night and do the same things. I dont know whether its true or not because I have never spent a night there in the fear of being taken by them because of my beauty, lol just kidding but have heard that its true.
