The Libyan desert has a lot to offer, It embraces countless and inspiring sites that are to impress anyone and everyone.
From the golden sand dunes to the fascinating natural lakes, but there are other places that impress in a much different way; the jinn cave or as called by the Tuareg the cave of Indinan.
The mountain is located in the desert city of Ghat, southwest of Libya, and consists of an amazing rock formation that makes it closer to fiction than to anything in reality.
The cave carved in the mountain is reportedly one of the most haunted places in the world. The residents of the area rumour that this mountain is not like any other place, for the visitor they say; never returns!
The cave in its creepy form tells several stories in which the truth is mixed with imagination and where the world of jinn is always present.
Some have reported seeing a deer in the cave at night; this deer cannot be caught, where it is believed to be Jinn in the form of an animal. Others told of hearing mysterious voices coming out from the cave.
Among the cultural heritage of the Tuareg that is still maintained is wearing a sword or a knife and in particular on special occasions such as marriage ceremonies, although the sword is not to fight the jinn, the Tuareg believe that the jinn fear iron, which makes them feel immune to evil spirits.
Several have tried to climb the cave and get into its secrets, but the mountain terrain limited the attempts making it more mysterious than before.
Jinn stories might take the breath of some and leave them with a chill, but for the people of the desert community, the Jinn stories are no concern and talking about the unusual and unfamiliar is part of their heritage legacy.
However, the quiet surrounding and the awesome views that the desert offers might actually make you want to never be seen again!
