Lonely Planet review for Hôtel de l’Oasis Rouge

The Hôtel de l’Oasis Rouge, originally constructed by colonial missionaries in the early 1900s, is a fine old building and it is worth a wander around inside to see the arched hallways, the courtyard and the walls, which are decorated with traditional designs. It also contains a one-room museum with a small collection of local fabrics, paintings, pottery and basket weaving, most of which is for sale. Another fine example of Timimoun’s architecture is the ornate Porte du Soudan, also constructed during colonial times and oriented towards the south.
