@anotherviewproject Anotherview @anotherviewproject continues with #OnceWeWereThere - a collection of #views on the places, animal species or some other things that are #disappearing from our planet...Next view that we would like to film is The City of Oualata/ Walata. @cityoualata WALATA is a beautiful city of caravans, is considered heir to the empire of Ghana, the legendary land of gold. Its beginnings go back to the stone age, although its great splendour can be dated to between the XI and XVII centuries. Its undoubtedly peculiar architecture and the mural decoration of its houses are unique examples of their kind. With its extraordinary cultural heritage, the city of Walata, considered a World Heritage Site by UNESCO @unesco Straddling the Sahara and the sahel, the greenery, the rocks and the dunes model the varied landscape of the region, while Walata, a millenarian city, climbs the hillside following narrow winding streets that protect it from the strong sun. The city of Oualata and it’s incredible cultural heritage is slowly disappearing from our planet as long as the desert takes over and people are moving toward more “easy for living” cities...we want to tell a story about Walata before it’s too late.. #anotherviewproject #africa #heritage #desert #oualata #modernart #adventure #travel #ontheroad #wanderlust #savetheplanet #artemoderna #GlobalGoals #EyeOnClimate @unfoundation @leonardodicaprio @leonardodicapriofdn #etabetapr_arte #etabetapr #mtpisani_etabetapr @mtpisani_etabetapr (presso Oualâta)
