This was a classic fort built in the 1930s. Fantastic. It looks like it could have come out of the movies with the foreign legion. This was to be the highlight of our sightseeing trip until Julia read more detail in the Explorer where it stated that it was closed Fridays and Saturdays… that’s the weekend by the way.. So we rock on up start snapping through the fence and thinking this was as good as it was going to get until an old man came out of the house nearby, had a conversation with me in Arabic and handed me the keys. I think the gist of the conversation was,” you can go in if you like, have a look in the rooms and make sure you lock up when you are finished”.
