Ksar of Draa – Mysterious Ancient Fortress in the middle of Desert

This tower remains a historical mystery. Built in the middle of an ocean of sand dunes of the Sahara Desert, in the middle of nowhere, Ksar of Draa never revealed her secrets. It is located about fifty kilometers from the city of Timimun.

In what century or year was it built? How was it built? From who? And why?

No confirmed answers, only vague speculation. Even in the ancient writings of the indigenous peoples of the region, there are no historical references to this fortress.

The Draa ksar rises majestically in the middle of an ocean of dunes. It has a characteristic circular shape, stands out in the middle of the desert and its history has been lost over the centuries. https://anomalien.com/ksar-of-draa-myst ... of-desert/

Another amazing place to add to my bucket list of amazing places to visit in my lifetime. It looks so amazing and isolated. I wonder just how difficult it is to access...or is access even possible for a tourist?
