From a camel desert safari to the festive spirit of culture, Douz is a lively town of central Tunisia. Nicknamed as the “Gateway to Sahara,” the town is considered as a large producer of ‘diglat noor’dates. Considered as a major palm oasis, Douz is one of the popular destinations of Tunisia. Though it is little bit sleepier than other regions of the country but you will witness a radical aliveness with the coming of Thursday market. This central Tunisian town is mainly noted for its annual International Festival of the Sahara. Besides the festival, Douz also has Museum of the Sahara, which displays traditional nomadic lifestyle of Mrazig people. The town is also loved by those who have special interest in desert trekking.
