TAN TAN Hollow in the flat mountain

Tan Tan must be one of the least exciting places in Morocco. There are no traces of ingenuity put to practice anywhere. Houses are fair enough, but a total dullness covers everything. There are good possibilities for staying overnight, which is important as it is more than half a day's journey in both northern and southern direction.Tan Tan holds no expatriates, and you won't wonder why. It might be some 10,000 people living here, but this place is a dump, marked by the fact that they come from all over Morocco, and many seem to plan their return. The result is a lack of Moroccan, Berber or Tuareg identity, and even of modernity.I worked hard for this photo — catching the real sight is not all that easy. As you climb up from Tan Tan in southern direction, the flatness of the mountain that Tan Tan as digged itself down into is dramatic. Like it was a crater of a meteorite, the cut along the flat mountain is uneven, making the flat even more flat.
