Is it safe to travel in Morocco and Western Sahara?

Traveling in Morocco's Western Sahara must be full of survival challenges for many people. You will face all kinds of emergencies directly. After all, this is a desert area, and there are dangerous unknown tribes. Of course, different voices and different living habits are also a huge obstacle. The following are some tips and precautions for traveling in Western Sahara, Morocco.

This time, I didn't go to Casablanca, the most classic in Morocco, but went directly to Western Sahara.

Laayoune is the capital of Western Sahara, a disputed area in Africa and the largest city in Western Sahara.

In order to prove that this is Moroccan territory, the Moroccan government has invested a lot here.

Vigorously develop tourism in this area, so that this little-known place has entered the vision of more people.

I didn't take pictures on the plane this time. Let's take some photos of the airport.

When it comes to Western Sahara, San Mao may be the first thing that many China people think of.

It is said that this is the present owner of Sanmao's former residence.

The man patted his chest and said, this is our house. Sanmao used to live here.

It is estimated that many people came to see him, and his neighbors all pointed to his house and said San Mao.

Because I am not literary enough, I didn't worry too much about whether Sanmao's former residence was there, so I decided to take photos and leave.

Let's continue our walk and pass a shop selling beef.

My brother told me to go forward. The front is very lively.

Don't know Arabic, the gate says no parking before demolition?

The driver picked up a cat from the ground and asked me to take his picture. He is more excited than me.

It is said that the price of gold in Morocco is not very high, but as a poor diaosi, you can only see it from the outside.

Gold and silver crafts street, there are also antiques.

The streets are full of Moroccan flags, as if telling tourists all over the world that Western Sahara is not an independent country, but Moroccan territory.

It should be a palm tree.

It really looks like a non-mainstream hairstyle. Ha ha laugh

The overall tone of Ayoun is pink.

Around the restaurant.

Stroll the streets, take a photo from time to time and record the scenery in front of you.

There is a small green pavilion in front of the hotel. The pavilion is very small. There is basically no extra space for a person to stand inside.

A child came up with duct tape on his mouth.

The former residence of Sanmao mentioned just now is number 44 above the house number, which is basically invisible in the photo.

Various doors

I patted the doors and windows while wandering in the alley.

Women lying on the windowsill enjoying the street view have a full sense of life and feel relaxed.

Street view, the local temperature difference is relatively large, it is very hot during the day and a little cold at night. Some people wear thick clothes, and some people add a pair of big sandals directly to their underwear vests.

Is it dark to live in it?

Streets with North African characteristics

I turned a corner and met the market.

It should be a vegetable market, which basically sells fruits and vegetables.

A quiet and peaceful street

The street lamp on the right is engraved with a skull.

People shuttling through the market

He saw me taking pictures here and didn't know where to take out a small national flag.

At first glance, I thought it was a public toilet.

A donkey car with a license plate is still blocked, probably for fear of being photographed for speeding.

Go through the fruit stand

There is a feeling of being in a Middle East country.

I think it's downtown. Many institutions such as the post office are nearby.

When I walked in the city, I was full of novelty, all kinds of messy photos, and recorded the cities I had been to with ordinary eyes.

People in a hurry

Moroccan flags can be seen everywhere.

It's already late May, and the next departure time is not far away.

Now the situation is becoming more and more unstable.

Roadside snack bar

A yard with great feeling.

The coffee shop on the roadside really wants to sit outside, watch the people coming and going on the road with coffee and enjoy this beautiful afternoon. Unfortunately, I have a task, so I have to think about it.
