Ghadames, Libya — the 'Pearl of the Desert' — a UNESCO-listed mudbrick oasis town of covered alleyways and rooftop terraces on the edge of the Sahara, near the Tunisia and Algeria borders.
The old town's interconnected rooftop walkways let residents move between homes without touching the ground, a design built for extreme desert heat. Access has been extremely limited in recent years due to regional instability — check current conditions closely before planning a visit.
