15 hours agoSo unchanged it is almost otherworldly': the oasis town of Skoura, Morocco
The first thing I notice when I walk into the oasis is the temperature drop. Then, I hear the birdsong and the rustling of the palm trees. The harsh sun dims and there's water and the smell of damp earth. It's easy to understand why desert travellers yearned to reach these havens and why they have become synonymous with peace.
