TASSILI N'AJJER

Address: Djanet, Algeria, DZ, North Africa
On the edge of the Sahara Desert can be found an impressive collection of prehistoric cave paintings, within the mountain range named the Tassili n'Ajjer (Plateau of the Rivers). More than 15,000 examples of artwork form a unique perspective on the people who once used to inhabit the Djanet region of Algeria. The area surrounding the rock art also has plenty of interesting geological features, including rock pillars that look like a 'forest of trees'.
