Nouakchott (/nwɑːkˈʃɒt/; French pronunciation: ​[nwakʃɔt]; Arabic: نواكشوط‎ Nuwākshūṭ, originally derived from Berber Nawākšūṭ, place of the winds)[1] is the capital and largest city of Mauritania. It is one of the largest cities in the Sahara.[2] The city also serves as the administrative and economic centre of Mauritania.

Nouakchott was a small village of little importance until 1958, when it was chosen as the capital of the nascent nation of Mauritania. It was designed and built to accommodate 15,000 people, but droughts and increasing desertification since the 1970s have displaced a vast number of Mauritanians who resettled in Nouakchott. This caused massive urban growth and overcrowding, with the city having an official population of just under a million as of 2013. The resettled population inhabited slum areas under poor conditions, but the living conditions of a portion of these inhabitants have since been ameliorated.

Most attractive Places in Mauritania||Mew Play

Mauritania is located in Africa and is not so famous. It is rather infamous for the terrorism and fear prone areas. The land is mainly of villages and their inhabitants. Mostly mud houses and agriculture abounds in Mauritania. It has passed a law long back in 1981 to end slavery.
Nouadhibhou
One of the densely populated cities of Mauritania. Fishing is the main industry of the city. It has numerous shipwrecks, largest one at the peninsula’s tip. You can take a look around the city in just 20 to 30 minutes. La Guerra is one of the tourism spots here.
Tidjikja
It is one of the quietest towns of Mauritania. Hop in for a peaceful ride. It as a caravan town, most of the travelers are nomadic. The ride we just spoke about is a caravan. It is a thrilling experience.
Adrar
You may need to take a guide along to the region of sand dunes, Adrar. You might also need to check with the local government if you can travel and pass through these regions. Though the temperature is as hot as the sun, there are oasis and trees which can give some relief to a heat sick traveller or the animals.
Nouakchott
It is the capital of Mauritania. And one of the little urban places in Mauritania. As Mauritania is mostly a desert, though Nouakchott is developed, you will still find nomad tents in public places. It is quite a sight.
Chinguetti
As discussed earlier it is not one the most modern cities of Africa. You will find old and traditional architecture. A really good place for an avid photographer. It is a UNESCO world heritage site.

MAURITANIA by drone

Landing in Nouadhibou, Mauritania. Edge of the the Sahara!

This is an unusual flight I took in June 2019 to a very unusual airport in west Africa. Air Mauritania operate a 3x weekly service from Mauritania to Gran Canaria. It seems like a really strange routing until you realize who most the passengers are : European, Ukranian and Russian fishermen !!
