Description

Right on the border with Tunisia, about 50 km from Ghadames, there is a salt flat called Sabkhat Mujazzam, where Ain Eddban lies. The name derives from Arabic and refers to the two adjacent lakes which, when seen from above, resemble the eyes of a fly. This area, considered a depression, was most likely a salt lake that has now dried up, revealing two small lakes, one freshwater and one saltwater. An extremely mysterious place that remains poorly documented to this day.
