An oasis on the road

Far away, in the Oriental region,  East of Morocco,  appears in the middle of the Sahara a stop along the way in the path of the wild sands. A green vergel that for centuries has been used by caravans and  travelers to resting and taking forces in the hard journey of the deserts.

 

The place is known as Figuig, the nearest oasis to Europe.That huge sea of palms appears in front of the lost traveller as a warm sensation of lethargy.

In many aspects this oasis - maybe all the oases do it - has stopped the evolution of  times and the coming future.
