situated in the southeast of Morocco, against a backdrop of the stunning dunes of Erg Chebbi
This is a small village of adobe houses situated in the southeast of Morocco, against a backdrop of the stunning dunes of Erg Chebbi, the gateway to the Sahara Desert. During the 1950s, during the drought, a group of ancient Amazigh nomadic families (descendants of the Bedouin people) left behind the hard life of the desert and settled next to a black hole, which gave this place its name. There is a small portion of land which is irrigated with a water piping system that comes from the depths of the desert.
