Douz Sahara Tunisia..
Douz is a small town in south-central Tunisia. Considered the "Gateway to the Sahara", the Gateway to the Sahara, Douz is a popular destination for tourists eager to discover the desert, either in camel or four-wheel drive.
The town of Douz grew up around a large palm grove that stands on the northern fringe of the Sahara. Surrounded by nothing but desert and dry scrub, historically, it was an important stop on the roads of trans-Saharan caravans. Today, tourists come in large numbers, many on the coach tours organized by the coast stations, to get a glimpse of the power of the Sahara.
