	Adventures of Mauritania: Ouadane
		Ouadane has some of the most impressive ruins of Mauritania.
		It is all set in the hillside, with buildings that blend with the rocks, both from colour and now their crumbling status.
		Ouadane was once an important centre for camel caravans, when salt, dates and gold were the main merchandise.

	The Treasures in Mauritania's dunes
		The dunes conceal four jewels: Ouadane and Chinguetti in the north, Tichitt and Oualata in the southeast.
		Ouadane, Chinguetti, Tichitt and Oualata may be drawing their last breath, but they are essential to understanding the history of this area, whose fate was closely linked to the water table and the trade routes that span the Maghreb, the Sahel and fl Africa.
		In Ouadane, on the other hand, the houses were built of pink or grey sandstone and a mortar made of clay and straw.

	Global Heritage Fund - Site Profile
		Founded in the 12th century AD, Ouadane became an important centre for camel caravans crossing the Sahara, facilitating the trade of salt, dates and gold.
		Today, the last vestiges of this remarkable city are crumbling to the ground, due in large part to the harsh desert winds as well as years of neglect.
		The houses in Ouadane are built of pink or grey sandstone stuck together with a mortar made of clay and straw.

	[No title]
		The arrival of Europeans on the coasts of Africa gradually diverted commerce towards trading posts that were created little by little on the coasts, and led to the decline of these ancient towns.
		Ouadane, or the City of the " two oueds," is an old city whose foundations date back to 1140.
		Ouadane offers exceptional landscapes because of its geographical location, and attracts visitors in particular to its houses built in cliffs.

	Geoff's Travel Scrapbook - Travel Notes from Mauritania
		Noa, Jeff, Josh and myself (we all met on the train from Nouadhibou) all stayed at an auberge in Atar, Bab Sahara, where we met Paul and Becky from the UK, whose Landrover was stuck in a garage for some major repairs, and David from France.
		We all planned on visiting Chinguetti and Ouadane, so between the seven of us we pooled our resources and hired a 4WD and driver for three days and two nights.
		Ouadane was founded by the Berbers in 1147 and prospered on the trans-Sahara caravan routes for 400 years and was a transit point for gold, dates and of course salt.
