Travel Tips from people who've been to El Oued
Est de l'Algérie. El Oued. Etrange ville. Située en plein milieu d'un désert de sable. Au bout des dernières rues, après la dernière maison : du sable à perte de vue! Pourtant la ville grouille de monde. Et le marché est assez animé. Les constructions ont presque toutes des toits en coupole, d'où le surnom de la ville : El oued, la ville aux mille coupoles.
Good tip?
