The Djado Plateau, located in northeastern Niger's Sahara region, features ancient cave art depicting large mammals no longer found in the area, alongside abandoned settlements and forts that remain standing. Sparsely populated, the commune of Djado recorded just 876 inhabitants in 2012. Recognized for its cultural importance, the plateau was added to UNESCO's World Heritage Tentative List in 2006.
