Geocache Description:


Terjit [Mauritania]

Terjit (Arabicترجيت) is an oasis (in the proper sense: a desert spring or other water source), 45km by road south of Atar and popular with tourists in Mauritania. It nestles in a gorge on the western edge of the Adrar plateau with the palm grove stretching a few hundred meters alongside a stream which emerges from a spring. Terjit is part of the commune of Maaden in the Aoujeft Department.

Historically, it has been used for religious ceremonies, especially wedding ceremonies, as well as the coronation of a few African princes.
