Great photos, in a way! Mauritania is Africa´s new petrostate. (I ahev read and been told) So change will coem to this town of a by-gone era. When were those photos taken, by the way?

Interesting pics...

Mauritania is a country that I know few info about, but it seems nice.

When were those photos taken, by the way?

if I remember correctly, 2005.

nice pics, mauritania seems like an interesting place
btw:is it true that slavery is still practiced in mauritania???

omg, remind me of khartoum.

Both cities has it's similarities I guess. However, I feel that Khartoum is much more attractive city in my book.

Both cities has it's similarities I guess. However, I feel that Khartoum is much more attractive city in my book.

i agree. and do they have any downtown or highrises.

Add a little more trees, and whitewash all the buildings, and you can trick someone into thinking that this is Mogadishu. ;)

Again, great pictures, Nouakchott looks like a very "home-like" place to me.

Judging my the aerial view the city seems to have a small number of 3 story buildings made of cement.

It's quite different than Khartoum geographically. Khartoum lies on the fertile Nile strip and Nouakchott lies on a flat sand desert along the coast with low fertility.

There seems to be a few "new" whitewashed residential buildings judging by a photo above, also some clay brick types too.

The minarets of the mosque seems to be the tallest structure in the city but I could be wrong. ;)

Some more Nouakchott pics..:)

What an interesting country and such a unique capital ! The architecture o Nouakchott resembles to the ones in Muscat and the topography is almost similar to Salalah. Is Mauritania considered as an Arab country ? Does anyone have the pics of the 2nd largest town, Nouadibou ?

This is the African country that im really interested in, a colorful mixture of nomadic and modern life, Arabic and local traditions, nice food ( the fish with fries looks tastyyy ) with great beaches and superb settings.

I don't fancy Mauritania too much, I propose that Western Sahara and Mauritania combine with Morroco, so they can be properly developed :)

^from a developmental point of view, I actually think that would make sense.

beautiful country

i don't want to bash mauritania, spacialy that i like this country a lot because they the only peacfull neighbours we have . but from these pictures i don't see anything beautiful, the city is built like a camp. and also i m sure that there are nicer places there but tourists tend to takepics of the poor areas , they find them exotic.
also i m sure that in the future noukchot will be very beautifull , specialy that now they have the money to do it and also the democracy

I agree. I'm not a fan of this particular city but it's good to have it on this forum, the city could be worked on in the future, so to speak. However, Mauretania's natural landscape is quite nice.

This mosque seems to be the tallest structure in the whole city.

i hate one thing from mauritania. that they still keep slaves

It's much better than I first thought. It also seems new that buildings were recently established.

This city will be very attractive if they just raise their road funding and plant some greenery to the side of the road. I''m not talking about the grass you see in North America or Europe, I'm talking about some greenery that is appropriate for a desert setting and something that is easy to maintain.

^^ Wow!! The place looks surreal, even for an African city. Looks cool, would love to experience it one day, but must be honest, the place seems very intimidating and out-of-this-world compared to even African cities places like Dakar, Lagos, Lusaka or Mombasa. But, that is what makes it appealing in a very exotic way.

But, could never live there, I think the summer temperatures would melt me and sublimate me right where I stood. :)

i dont know why but i fail to see any kind of beauty in this city

Certainly, a copse of palms placed at intervals along the median strip dividing each road could add some much-needed shade for pedestrians.

Great photos! I stayed in Nouakchott for a week last summer (the week before the coup d'etat) and really enjoyed the place. It's so spread out that it lacks the claustrophobic feel of other capital cities

So vast.

i try to look at the city from different ways but still, it looks depressing to me. they really need to spruce the place a little (planting more trees, maintaining the roads, etc). hopefully their petrodollars will be spent appropriately and we can see a more vibrant Nouakchott in the future.

You are right.
The government knows this and is trying to work on it.

This article is about de restructaration of what we call Gazras(shantytowns).
The areas in blue are getting refurbished as we speak.


Restructuration des Gazras

Une première opération de restructuration est en cours d'exécution au niveau d'El Mina, dans le plus ancien bidonville la ville. La première phase de cette restructuration qui doit servir d'opération pilote a été achevée avec succès. Cette opération vise l'amélioration des conditions de vie des populations en leur fournissant les infrastructures et les services urbains de base et en aménageant une zone de réinstallation au profit des populations déplacées pour la libération des emprises pour les infrastructures et équipements publics. La première phase a permis de reloger plus de 2300 ménages et de libérer les emprises nécessaires pour les infrastructures et les équipements au profit des populations du quartier. Les casiers situés entre les emprises de voies doivent faire l'objet d'une approche de remembrement progressif. Deux casiers pilotes sont en cours de traitement.

Pour mettre fin à l'occupation irrégulière et améliorer les conditions de vie des populations des quartiers précaires de Nouakchott, le Gouvernement a l'intention de préparer et mettre en oeuvre, dans le cadre du PDU, un plan de restructuration des principales Gazra. Il s'agira essentiellement des Gazra de Toujounine (Est et Ouest), Arafat (A et B) de Dar Naim (Tensweilim et Haye Saken). La population de ces Gazra a été estimée en 2000 à 108 350 habitants (23067 ménages) répartis sur 888 ha (voir schéma de situation).

http://i939.photobucket.com/albums/ad238/Oumar9/Maps/KBM5.gif


En terme d'équipements collectifs et individuels

Cette phase comprend :

(i) une composante " marchés et stations de transport " comprenant la construction d'un grand marché dans la Kebba, 2 marchés de quartier (dont 1 dans la kebba et 1 dans la zone de recasement) et 3 aires de stationnement destinées aux véhicules de transport public;

(ii) une composante "éducation et santé " comprenant la construction de 5 écoles primaires, 3 nouveaux collèges, 6 salles de classes comme extension d'un collège existant et d'un centre de santé de type B ;

(iii) une composante "Assainissement " comprenant la construction de 2300 latrines familiales et 10 blocs de latrines publiques.

Pour les blocs de latrines publiques, ils ont été totalement achevés et remis à la Commune d'El Mina qui les gère en régie pendant une première phase test.

Quant aux fosses de latrines familiales, 2300 unités ont été totalement achevées et pour une petite partie subsiste encore quelques réserves.

B.b- En terme de dotation en infrastructures de base

Il est prévu la réalisation :


(i) d'une composante voirie consistant à ouvrir un réseau de voies primaires et secondaires dans le quartier en suivant une trame conçue pour être cohérente avec celle des quartiers lotis voisins. Elle comportera l'ouverture de plusieurs axes devant comprendre des routes bitumées (6.8 Km) et d'autres stabilisées (8.8 Km) ;

Cette importante réalisation a permis de désenclaver la Kebba et la zone de relogement des populations déplacées ainsi que leur connexion au tissu urbain de la ville de Nouakchott.

Elle a également permis l'éclosion de diverses activités au bord des nouvelles routes, notamment de petits métiers comme les menuisiers, les plombiers, les petits vendeurs…

La réalisation de cette voirie en harmonie avec l'électrification des rues a donné aux quartiers un meilleur visage et plus de sécurité aux habitants.

It does look better now. I guess to the greatest satisfaction of the residents.

Merci Hadrami pour ta contribution, continue à poster et nous faire découvrir ton beau pays.

The centre of Nouakchott will not be forgotten:

Restructuration du centre ville :banana:

Le Centre-ville de Nouakchott connaît un certain dynamisme ces dernières années : démolition, reconstruction, agrandissement, élévation d'étages supplémentaires, etc... Des secteurs comme l'ilôt A, l'ilôt B, l'ilôt G et l'ilôt V risquent d'être totalement transformés à très court terme. Ce processus est irréversible et rapide.Par ailleurs, ces secteurs, de par leur emplacement, sont et resteront l'image de marque de la capitale. Afin de conférer un urbanisme cohérent et quelque peu prestigieux au centre-ville, les Autorités prévoient d'anticiper et de canaliser les transformations qui l'affecteront.

Une étude portant sur l'élaboration d'un plan d'aménagement pour la zone du centre-ville de Nouakchott qui fixe les conditions d'utilisation ainsi que les règles de mise en valeur des sols qui le compose est en cours de lancement.

Ce plan doit notamment définir :
-un plan de structure, intégrant en particulier la circulation des véhicules (Boulevards, avenues, axes primaires et secondaires, et des rues piétonnes), les espaces publics et les articulations avec les autres quartiers de la ville
-les différentes zones qui seront déterminées par leurs vocations et les usages qui leur sont liés, leur densité globale ainsi que leur coefficient d'occupation du sol.
-la localisation des équipements publics et collectifs ;
-les périmètres et limites des réserves foncières en vue notamment de réaliser des objectifs économiques et sociaux ;
-Les périmètres délimitant les secteurs de projets opérationnels tels ZAC, PIF ou autres;
-les servitudes d'utilité publique, notamment, les servitudes de protection des bâtiments anciens ou des réalisations architecturales à préserver ;
-les secteurs dont l'aménagement fait l'objet d'un régime juridique particulier ou de modalités de mise en œuvre particulières ;

Merci, je vois. Je savais que les Hadrami avaient apporté l'Islam jusqu'ici en Malaisie (la ou j'étudis actuellement) mais je ne savais pas qu'ils avaient des desendant jusqu'en Mauritanie. :nuts:

Je ferais mes recherches sur l'Imam Al Hadrami, j'avous que mes connaissances de l'histoire de cette région sont assez limitées.

T'a raison, contribus plus ici que l'Oasis. J'ais vu nombre de tes interventions, comme ceux sur les francophones d'Afrique, le meilleur moyen est d'ignorer ce genre de commentaires débiles.

Sinon, qu'en est il de la situation économique du pays? N'hésite pas à poster les derniers projets en cours ou de nous tenir informé de la situation économique du pays.

Merci encore:),

Hello, everyone:

I lived in Mauritania for 6 years-- 80 to 86. Happiest years of my life. I know most people in the Western world will have a hard time understanding that by looking at these pictures-- but it was a country frozen in time (I imagine it still is to some degree), unique, authentic and unpolluted in every sense. Wonderful people.

When I look at these pics, I see that, in some ways, it has not changed at all. But looking at Google Earth it is amazing how much Nouakchott has grown. And I'm sure the Mauritania (and Nouakchott) I once knew are very changed.

I do have a very special request. If anyone is local there and can take some pics of a certain spot in Nouakchott that is (still) very dear to me, I would really appreciate it if you could send me a Private Message.

Bump to the top!

In the absence of Google Earth street-view footage, I'll give this another try. Anybody currently living in Nouakchott on this forum?

Impossible job. Nouakchott is not called city of the dunes for nothing.
It's the biggest city in the Sahara + it's located at the sea so it can get windy spreading the sand everywhere.

Wow, the city is notably better and cleaner than from 2005-2006. Drastically so, in fact.

nice pics, mauritania seems like an interesting place
btw:is it true that slavery is still practiced in mauritania???

As far as I know Mauritanian government has decreed it outlawed,but far from urban centers it still exists.

Like it very much. In many ways, feels like Aden in Yemen.

I wish Ryanair/ European Llow-cost carriers flying straight to Nouakchott.

Hey Hadrami, great pics!

Any chance you can get a pic of the "Quartier des Ambassades" (I believe that's what it's called, but I could be wrong)?
Specifically, the German, Spanish and US embassy compounds.
The three are neighbors...

I think road signs in Morocco, Senegal, Mauritania and many former french colonies is of the same style as those in France. ;)

Villégiature: La banlieue de Nouakchott, privilégiée
1 Août 2011

Au mois de Juillet, la ville de Nouakchott se transforme en un lieu particulièrement pénible, à cause des pluies et de la vétusté des infrastructures d’assainissement, où routes, sentiers impraticables et chaleur cohabitent. La crise économique a contraint la majorité des habitants de la capitale à se contenter des banlieues comme lieux de villégiature, au lieu des campagnes lointaines. Reportage sur l'émergence d'un nouveau style de vie.


http://i939.photobucket.com/albums/ad238/Oumar9/Nktt/3170369-4532940.jpg
Pour la société maure essentiellement, l'intérieur du pays est le cadre idyllique de villégiature



Fatimetou Mint Haye, 45 ans, ménagère et mère de quatre enfants se rendait, jusqu’en 2007, à la badiya de Ghaba (à 20 km de la ville de Kiffa au centre du pays), mais son mari qui travaille dans le secteur des assurances, ne peut plus financer le voyage de Nouakchott à Kiffa. La crise économique est passée par là. En 2008, elle décide donc de passer les vacances avec ses enfants à Wad Naga (50 km à l’est de Nouakchott, sur la route de l’espoir), où elle peut se procurer du lait de chamelles, frais, à proximité des pâturages, et à un prix abordable par rapport à la ville. Elle loue ainsi une grande maison de trois pièces, une cuisine, et une grande cour à 10.000 UM. Incomparable avec les 50 000 ouguiyas qu’elle paie à Nouakchott pour un appartement. Ce ne sont pas les seuls avantages de ce nouveau «petit paradis» selon elle. «Il y a un climat de fraicheur assez particulier, dans un environnement loin des embouteillages citadins, de la pollution, et des inconvénients de la pluie» explique Fatimetou. «Et nous avons même l'eau et l'électricité» se réjouit-elle.

Mais Sabar, le mari de Fatimetou garde tout de même un penchant pour les villages lointains malgré tout, et considère que dans les banlieues comme Wad Naga, proches de la capitale, «on se sent en définitive à Nouakchott, avec toujours aussi peu d'activités». «Alors que plus à l'intérieur, on peut pratiquer l’équitation, la natation, accompagner le berger sur de vastes espaces verts. Tu peux en somme avoir des vacances plus attractives. Le soir, nous nous regroupons autours du «Chena» où les jeunes filles du quartier se réunissent pour chanter, tandis que les jeunes improvisent des poèmes. Alors vous comprenez que de petites localités à proximité des grands centres urbains où les bruits de voitures font rage, ne peuvent pas remplacer ces lieux idylliques. Mais la crise économique ne nous laisse pas beaucoup de choix.» raconte Sabar.


L'exode rural a changé les choses

Les habitudes des Mauritaniens ont changé après le grand exode rural des années soixante-dix du 20ème siècle. Selon des statistiques officielles, le tiers des habitants du pays optent pour les vacances à proximité des grands centres urbains et du lieu de travail. Said Ould Habib journaliste à Saharamedia, spécialisé dans la sphère sociologique interprète l’orientation des vacanciers vers les zones sub-urbaines. «Le phénomène de vacances dans les banlieues va dans quatre directions. Il y a la route de Nouadhibou où des banlieues se trouvent à 20 km et plus; la route de Rosso où il y a des petites habitations, mais il y a aussi la route de l’espoir, où des villages poussent dans le désordre le plus total; enfin l'axe Nouakchott-Akjoujt qui a moins de visiteurs, car le couvert végétal y est moins développé» explique-t-il.
Mais Saïd estime que la route de la «Résistance» connue sous le nom de «la route Aziz» qui relie Dar-Naim à Toujounine est devenu le lieu de pèlerinage des Nouakchottois désireux de s’éloigner de la pollution.

Le sociologue Sidi Mohamed Ould Jiid a un point de vue sur ce nouveau mode de vie nouakchottois. «Ce changement est tout à fait logique, car après l’exode rural des mauritaniens à cause de la sècheresse des années soixante-dix du siècle dernier, vers les grands centres urbains, Nouakchott et Nouadhibou surtout, les mauritaniens ont continué à voyager dans leurs terroirs lointains. Les zones banlieusardes se présentent aujourd'hui comme l'équilibre idéal pour garder encore un parfum de nature campagnarde.» analyse-t-il.
Lamar ould El Hadj, gardien, ne voyage pas en vacances hors de la ville. Il est satisfait de pouvoir habiter dans les maisons des vacanciers qu’il garde pendant les vacances moyennant un prix convenu.

Many years ago, I had the pleasure of visiting Nouakchott, and had a great time meeting very hospitable people and wandering around the city. I liked it there; hopefully, one day, I will be able to return. I enjoyed looking at all the pictures on this thread.
