The very idea that we're making of the lost oasis in the sands becomes reality by touching Fachi. Nestled in a depression at the foot of the Reliefs, the palm grove stretches over ten kilometres from north to south, the palm trees emerging from the sands without any trace of life. Where is the village? It was finally uncovers in the south, small houses with low walls with a few shady streets of Albizia Lebek, work of a green hand a few decades ago. The ruins of the fortress are interesting: It was discovered in the inner courtyard of old greniers, which allowed villagers besieged to hold a seat. The village kids are pretty invasive, but you often only spend once in Fachi! The visit to the village chief gives us the opportunity to think about the chef condition in such areas: apparat, a point of display of affluence, in a small dark room, on an old Libyan carpet, he welcomes his visitor in a perfect French and willingly causes life oasienne. Life has changed little since eternity, except that all children or almost all children are educated and many fewer caravans come to Approvisionner.We are going to ask you to pay a local tourist tax, we must know that it is illegal and that it is in its right if we refuse to pay it- The saltworks are in the south of the village, Lawal Abdala and Mama Lamine are there to have them visited: the harvest of table salt is explained, which can only gather once a week for one day, it sells 2 000 FCFA the 50 kg. Fachi salt, of lesser quality than that of Bilma, is preserved in the form of bread for animals: 25 CFAF rolls, and 200 FCFA for large ones. Each basin of about 2 m 2 belongs to a private person who may possess several.
