Libya Travel Guide - Top Things To See

 

 


• Be amazed by Leptis Magna - the incredible well-preserved ancient remains of a Roman settlement. Highlights are the Severan Arch (erected in honour of Emperor Septimus Severus), the marble- and granite-lined Hadrianic Baths, a detailed basilica, and an amphitheatre.

• Enjoy the stunning beaches along the 2,000km (1,243 miles) of Mediterranean coastline.

• See the unique desert oasis town of Ghadames, known as the ‘Pearl of the Desert', in the western region, 800km (500 miles) southwest of Tripoli. The old town's unique architecture consists of white-washed mud walls and covered labyrinthine walkways.

• Admire the Zallaf Sand Dunes, home to the native Tuareg tribe. Saline lakes with high mineral content and palm trees surround the dunes. Enjoy relaxing sand baths and salt-lake bathing in this unusual environment.

• Watch traditional folkloric dances and music at special festivals and occasions in oasis towns such as Ghadames, Ghat, Hun, and in the Green Mountain and Western Mountain regions, as well as Tripoli.

• Look at the unusual architecture of the cereal warehouses in Nalut, Kabaou and Kasr Elhaj.

• Wonder at some of the Sahara's finest rock art in the Akakus Mountains.
