The country boasts numerous national parks where you can watch the local wildlife. Desert lovers will find a remarkable variety of animals including fennecs, lizards, rodents, snakes, scorpions and camels.
Meanwhile, the plant life varies from one region to the next. Verdant in the north, it is a combination of meadows, bean plantations and olive groves whereas in the south, it becomes more austere and is restricted to cacti, palm trees and a handful of thorny shrubs lying at the doorstep of the desert.
