You
expect it to be just another anonymous town, marked by the same blob
on the map as all the other boring towns of Mauritania; in fact it
is located in a stunning position at the foot of the mountains at
the beginning of a sea of apparently endless sand dunes...very
impressive from above. OK, the town itself is nothing much to
write home about, but it is probably one of the more interesting
bits of Mauritania as far as landscape goes.
