El oued in short words

El Oued is located 400 miles south east of Algiers (the capital city of Algeria), near the Tunisian border. The population of El Oued is 139,362, as of the 1998 census.
El oued is an excellent base for visiting the desert in Algeria. It is a charming town with good examples of Saharan. is the centre of a number of oasis, called Souf, but it is El Oued, has a reputation of being a good place to shop, etc,

Really, El oued it is a wonderful town deserves more than visit each time, each season saying welcome to others, here the nature mixed with challenge and love, this town never let away its features, in spite of civilisation invasion but this town kept its simple look tradition and habits.

El-Oued Tagged the 'Town of a Thousand Domes’; El-Oued is the major town of the Souf region in the Grand Erg Oriental. Most of the buildings have domes, built to alleviate the summer heat. The town is also famous for its carpets, which often bear the traditional cross of the Souf. The daily souq (market) in the old part of town is at its most animated on Friday.
