Visit Adrar


The Adrar region is one of the provinces of Mauritania located in the country's north-western corner. The region is well known for its desert landscapes, with vast sand dunes and breathtaking sunsets. Home to many nomadic tribes, it has a unique cultural history.

Adrar is a great destination for tourists looking to experience traditional Mauritanian culture and explore its beautiful desert scenery. Two top places to visit are the Chinguetti Mosque, an ancient Islamic monument built in 1250 AD; and Atar's market, where visitors can experience local trading traditions in action.

In addition to its cultural heritage, Adrar has a long history stretching back thousands of years: it was once part of an ancient trans-Saharan trade route used by merchants travelling from Ghana to Egypt!
