Ghardaia is a hidden paradise of towering palm trees, bright blue skies, and friendly locals that welcome visitors with open arms. As I explored the date palm oasis, I learned about the intricate irrigation system that brings water from the M'zab valley to nourish the palms. The city's rich history blends with modern infrastructure to provide visitors with a unique experience. I also had the chance to participate in the ancient cultural tradition of going on a date-picking adventure, which was both fun and informative.
