  Dakhla, Western Sahara - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dakhla, or Ad Dakhla (formerly Villa Cisneros), is a city in Western Sahara with about 30,000 inhabitants.

During the colonial period, the Spanish authorities made Dakhla capital of the province of Rio de Oro, one of the two regions of the Spanish Sahara.

 Dakhla, Morocco: Practicalities
Dakhla covers the range of hotels from unclassifieds to the 3-star Doumss.
It is a strange place, just north of the town streets, with low houses, full of tiny windows, where women have put their faces, waiting for possible clients.
Dakhla is more laid back in its military things than Laayoune.

The main pharaonic sites in Dakhla include a town site of the Old Kingdom (2686-2160 BC) and its associated cemetery of 6th dynasty mastaba tombs, near the modern village of Balat.
This oasis is of approximately the same age as the Epi-Levalloisian sites of the Sebilian and the Fayyum Depression.
Except for some Old Kingdom and First Intermediate settlements in Dakhla, most of the oases were probably not occupied until the 1st millennium BC.

 Dakhla, Morocco: Spanish lighthouse
Out of town, at a tiny little cape on the Atlantic shore, the old, still standing Spanish light house is found.
Rising 240 steps, it is visible from most places inside Dakhla.
From the top of the light house, about half of the peninsula of Dakhla can be seen, and of course, all of Dakhla.

 Dakhla, Morocco: Deep South
With a reputation that often is summed up in guide books' "if you should be stranded here"- approaches, Dakhla is a great surprise.
As always down here in Western Sahara, people are very friendly, and in a way where they always make sure that you, the visitor, is treated like the welcomed guest.
Excursions from Dakhla are few, but a trip out to the old Spanish light house, or down along the shores towards the tip of the peninsula, along with long walks around the many crowded streets, should be enough to fill a couple of days stay in Dakhla.

Since 1979 Morocco has claimed the Saharan Provinces of Boujdour, Es Semara, Laayoune and Dakhla or Oued el Dahab which occupy the former Spanish region.
Environmental impact includes the ongoing but much reduced military conflict which continues in the eastern region, an area marked with numerous land mines and other explosives; fighting has been reported to have affected important nature conservation areas, including the wetland of Guelta Zemmur.
In addition, major environmental impacts have resulted from the construction of military installations and a sand-wall line of defences 2,575km long from the Ourkziz to Dakhla.
