Touggourt, Algeria
Touggourt is the chief town of the Wadi R?Hir region in northeastern Algeria and lies at the junction of ancient trans-Saharan caravan routes. The city, built with traditional dried mud or clay-stone buildings, is known for its extensive date palm oases, which are a major source of livelihood.
Historically, it was the capital of the Sultanate of Tuggurt, ruled by the Banu Djellab dynasty from the 15th century until it was abolished by French colonial authorities in 1854. The city is served by both road and rail links, connecting it to other urban centers in Algeria.
