Lemseyed overlooking the red river, Seguiat al-Hamra, Western Sahara's lifeline, which runs dry most of the year
It is so incredibly small, there cannot be more than 40-50 shy inhabitants here. Lemseyed is counted as the local beauty retreat near Laayoune, and the setting is great. You drive down roads where the landscape never changes, then suddenly the gorge of the Seguiat al-Hamra opens up in front of you, and there the oasis of Lemseyed has found a tiny source of water coming out of the barren mountains.
