这些城镇建造于公元11世纪和12世纪,是贸易和宗教的中心,为经过撒哈拉沙漠的商队提供服务,并逐渐发展成为伊斯兰文化的中心。人们设法保存了公元12世纪到16世纪所建的城镇。沿着狭窄的街道是拥挤的带有天井的房子,环绕着一个有正方形尖塔的清真寺。这展示了具有西撒哈拉游牧文化人们的传统生活方式。
Founded in the 11th and 12th centuries to serve the caravans crossing the Sahara, these trading and religious centres became focal points of Islamic culture. They have managed to preserve an urban fabric that evolved between the 12th and 16th centuries. Typically, houses with patios crowd along narrow streets around a mosque with a square minaret. They illustrate a traditional way of life centred on the nomadic culture of the people of the western Sahara.
