      Desert (Ghat)    
   
 
Deep in the desert lies Ghat , 450 miles south of Ghadames. It is an antique town inhabited by the famous tribe of Tuareq. It served as a trading post for desert caravans going through Ghadames and Tripoli .
The old mosque is one of the outstanding sites in the old town.
 
 

In addition to the old town, there is a new town located nearby.
It is a marvelous town, especially during December when an annual traditional festival is held. The inhabitants show their culture, customs and music mixed with colorful folk dancing.

It is a good chance to ride a camel and feel the warm hearts of Toureq who are well known for their hospitality towards visitors.
