LIBYA: Nobody Travels to the BERBER part (I did!) 🇱🇾
Показать описание
DON'T TRUST the Mainstream MEDIA! Travel to Libya in 2025 and you'll discover more than just Tripoli city. It is now safe to be a tourist in the NAFUSA MOUNTAINS of Libya. Here I learned about BERBER / AMAZIGH culture, tried local food, met some very lovely berber people and toured some epic ruins and Qasr's.
What's a Qasr (Kasr)? It's an ancient grainery storage and most spectacular example of Berber architecture.
"Qasr al Haj” was originally used to store the local produce such as olive oil and grains. Each family in the village would have a special designated place. The whole structure is usually circular and has a main entrance gate.
It is these Kasr that make some people claim that Libyans were the first to invent the banking system. For example in Qasr Nalut families also stored valuables such as jewels and documents. In this Nafusa Mountains Vlog I meet with a man who's family has a room in the Gasr dating back thousands of years!
The Qasrs were also used as resting and meeting points for the pilgrims in their way to the coastal cities and hence the name: Qasr al-H’aj (The Pilgrim’s Castle).
BEFORE TRAVEL PLEASE DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH. The situation can change quickly, so please don't rely solely on this video to when making your decision.
Please contact my awesome Libyan travel guide Badran to help plan your trip safely. (DM me on IG @philsguide for his contact information).
See for yourself that in 2025 the majority of Libya is completely safe for tourism and the country has so much to offer a tourist. Travel to Libya and from Tripoli to the UNESCO Roman Ruins of Leptis Magna to the desert to the Mediterranean Sea you'll be amazed!
❤️ It's my goal to see the world NOT thru the eyes of the media, but through my own eyes. Therefore, I specialize in showing you the countries that the MEDIA shines in a bad light. It's in these countries that I've found the MOST FRIENDLY and hospitable PEOPLE! Please take a look at my full series below:
