Tataouine (Arabic: تطاوين; also transliterated as Tatooine, Tatahouine, Tatahouïne, Taţāwīn or Tatawin, as well as Fum Taţāwīn, Fumm Tattauin, Foum Tatahouine, Fum Tatawin, or Foum Tataouine) is a city located in southern Tunisia at 32°55′32″N 10°26′39″E / 32.92556, 10.44417. It is the capital of the Tataouine Governorate.
The district is famous for its ksour (fortified Berber granaries) including the picturesque Ksar Ouled Soltane, Chenini and Douiret. These abandoned settlements feature beautiful vaulted adobe buildings, or ghorfas.
On June 27, 1931, a meteorite of the rare achondrite type impacted at Tataouine; about 12 kg of fragments were found. The mineral of this meteorite was named Diogenite.
Tataouine's name became famous when George Lucas, who filmed the original Star Wars film in various locations of Tunisia (for example, the Lars Homestead, filmed at the Hotel Sidi Driss in Matmata), named Luke Skywalker's fictional home planet Tatooine.
Tataouine appeared in the end of the movie The X-Files as Foum Tataouine, where an extraterrestrial viral experiment facility was held. |

Interesting landscape, It shows the immenensity of the desert. Composition is well balanced. You should also present it has a "large version" option on the site, this way we could see it larger and read more easily the small detail.
If you are not sure what I am talking about, look on the left of the screen in the blue band and click the option Panoramas.
TFS.
