Today we're going to talk about Libya, an impressive nation that ranks fourth in size among African countries. Did you know that it rains less there than anywhere else in the world? But don't think it's just desert! We will show you how Libya is a country of surprises, with a rich culture and incredible places to visit.
Libya is a land of ancient history, inhabited since time immemorial by a variety of cultures. From ancient Berbers to Romans and Ottomans, everyone has left their mark on this mysterious and enchanting country.
Are you ready to discover the 5 best places to visit in Libya? First, we have Leptis Magna, one of the best preserved Roman archaeological sites in the world. Then, the incredible city of Ghadames, known as the 'Pearl of the Desert'. The Idehan Ubari desert, with its lakes in the middle of the dunes, is a view you cannot miss. Benghazi, the second largest city in the country, is a destination full of history and culture. And finally, the capital, Tripoli, with its beautiful mosques and lively bazaars.
The local currency is the Libyan dinar, and the official language is Arabic. For our Brazilian friends, you must apply for a visa before traveling.
Now, talking a little about the socioeconomic and political situation, Libya has been facing challenges since the 2011 revolution, which resulted in the fall of Muammar Gaddafi. The country is in a process of reconstruction and recovery, seeking stability and progress. We entered 2019, but it was a real struggle, as we entered through Tunisia, and the next day they targeted Tripoli airport (the capital) with missiles, we left the country in fear, perhaps one of the countries we feel most afraid of.
Returning to our curiosity in the title: Libya, due to its geographical location and the vast Sahara desert, is the place where the least amount of rain is recorded in the world! Interesting, isn't it?
