Dallol Ethiopia

A ghost town today, Dallol used to be a small settlement back in the 60’s but since then all of its population left this African town when the temperature would reach 95 degrees Fahrenheit with its day time temperature often rising up to 100 degrees and that’s not all. This is just the average temperature, during its hottest days the temperature often reaches 105 degrees. Hot isn’t it?

Timbuktu, Mali

With a rich history in the Saharan Trade Routes the city was once the heart of knowledge and scholarship and the biggest road to the spread of Islam in Africa. Even though, it still has some population living stably in the city the temperature can be fierce here so much so that it reached 130 degrees Fahrenheit. But, that does not kills this city’s fascination the great Niger River is only about 15 miles away and is a chilling escape for the dwellers.

Kebili, Tunisia

Kebili is a desert in central Tunisia. This town although fairly hot, is low in heat compared to the greater northern African Desert. The hundreds of palm trees here will provide you shade, cool water and a breezy wind. But don’t get to excited yet, the weather here often reaches up to 135 degrees where even the palm trees can’t comfort you.
